About Baker
C. David Baker’s first novel, A Journey of Souls, was released in 2000 and re-released in 2004 as Crusade of Tears...a Christee Nominee. He has published six historical novels and two Christian devotionals, several of which are available in Russian language translations. Research has taken him throughout Europe, and his interviews have included a variety of fascinating people such Manfred Rommel, son of Fieldmarshal Rommel, and Johann Voss, author and veteran of the Waffen-SS, both of whom contributed much to Baker’s Seduction of Eva Volk.
Baker is the descendant of early German and Scottish immigrants. His family tree is an assortment of Mennonite, Reformed, and Presbyterian families including Adam Neff--the flag bearer who stood by Zwingli, William Rittenhouse--the first American paper maker, and William Penn’s Dutch mother. Nine of his ancestors served in the Bucks County militia during the American Revolution.
The father of two sons, Baker lives on a small farm with his wife, Sue. Together they raise livestock with an interest in natural/organic methods and a passion for humane treatment. Other interests include genealogy, theology, and hiking with his sidekick--a bulldog named Maggie.
Failure has been part of his life as well. It has been these deep valleys that have led David to the well of Grace from which the essence of his writing is drawn.
