Wes Davis is the author of American Journey, which invites readers along on the road trips Henry Ford and Thomas Edison took with the nature writer John Burroughs in the early years of the twentieth century, and The Ariadne Objective, a narrative account of the underground war to rescue Crete from Nazi occupation during World War II. He is also the editor of An Anthology of Modern Irish Poetry. Davis grew up in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains in East Tennessee, close to one of the sites where Ford and Edison camped during their exploration of the Appalachian Highlands in 1918. In the early 1990s he served as camp manager on the excavation of a Minoan archaeological site at Kavousi in Eastern Crete, not far from the plateau where the commandos he would write about in The Ariadne Objective parachuted onto the island in 1944. He received a Ph.D. in English Literature from Princeton University and taught for nearly a decade at Yale University. His writing has appeared in publications that include the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal and The Nation. He now lives outside New York City with his family and other animals.
