Malcolm Harris is a retired Captain of the U.S. Naval Reserve Intelligence service, a Texas trial lawyer, and former owner and skipper of the world-class sailing vessel, Lai Sien. He has been sailing upon, studying, discovering and photographing the oceans of the world for a lifetime. His book, SAILING THE SEA OF CORTEZ, VOYAGES OF DISCOVERY is available from Apple iBooks or hard copy from the Alajuela Publishing Company at sailalajuela.com.

Malcolm has recently published a new book entitled AMERICAN CENTURY - ROOTS IN TEXAS, a historical memoir and photographic record of a lifetime that covers a greater part of the 20th Century now well into the 21st. The book describes growing up in Austin and Wimberley, college years at the University of Texas, active duty at sea with the U.S. Navy in the Pacific, a long career as a Texas trial lawyer in Austin and El Paso, a rise to prominence as a Naval Intelligence Reserve officer, and the management and preservation of beautiful properties in and around the Texas Hill Country.

The new book contains a photographic record that actually extends to three centuries, 19th, 20th and 21st. A lifetime infatuation with the art and science of photography has allowed the author to make and preserve a photographic description not only of his own lifetime but extending to that of his American and Texas ancestors as well. The book provides a personal narrative and whole galleries of photography, many dozens of images that Malcolm has prepared and preserved throughout his life. The recent book is available as a digital download from Apple iBooks.
