Welcome aboard, Samuel! You are our youngest New Author at age 16! We look forward to all of your comments and postings at The Errol Flynn Blog…

I heard recently from a young fellow named Samuel who runs the Errol Flynn Channel on uTube dedicated to “Errol Flynn, Olivia de Havilland and many others from the 30's until today…” At just 16, Samuel has set out a career path for himself in films and we wish him every success – this is just the kind of dedicated young man the film industry needs and he represents the next generation of Errol Flynn fans we all want to see go forward…

Nicely done, Samuel!

Our new Author Lou Alexander “met” Errol Flynn as a very young child when his teacher pointed out Flynn sitting in a car by the curb as Lou and his fellow children stood outside his school with their teachers. Lou noticed his teacher seemed to be excited about the handsome man sitting in the car – and when he asked who he was – she said, Why, that's Errol Flynn!

Ahoy all Zaca lovers

To refresh your memory:

She has said: “my father was the Master/Captain of Zaca during 56/57……….. the journal is full of photos of EF and family, copies of original letters to and from EF……..log book entrants……….. telegrams, and information dad has typed re meeting with EF.”

(Bonnie has further related this most interesting tidbit- that her father and Errol Flynn had MUCH common- not the least of which … a shared birthday!)

I am REALLY looking forward to this book as it is another unusual (and to date, unknown) witness to events that has come forward- albeit indirectly. In fact, had Ms Cother not gone through her fathers' things, discovered this treasure trove of Flynn stuff (and, in many cases VERY fragile items at that) and TAKEN THE TIME OFF to do loving justice to the assemblage of it all … I shudder to think of the alternative! Afterall, think of the almost fate of the Zaca itself!

Best- Karl
