David Clensy spent more than twenty years in regional newspaper journalism and was twice named South-West Feature Writer of the Year at the EDF Regional Media Awards.
Based in Wiltshire, but originally from Birkenhead in Merseyside, he is passionate about historical fiction. His 2024 standalone debut novel, Prayer in Time of War, tells the story of elderly veteran Ernie as he returns to an Italy transformed from his experiences during the Second World War, in search of the young woman he left behind in the back streets of Naples half a century before.
His Romulus Hutchinson Naval Adventures are action-packed, authentic historical adventures following twin brothers fighting with the Royal Navy and the Merchant Navy during the Second World War.
He has also written a number of non-fiction books, including Island Life: A History of Looe Island (2006), The Mole of Edge Hill (2006), Walking The Wolds Way (2007) and Walking the White Horses (2023).
