About Allan K. Patch:
Retired USN Captain Allan Patch grew up in Plymouth, Mass where he developed a
fascination with the heritage of our nation. Adding sciences to his interest in history,
Allan earned a BS in biology from Boston College and a DMD from Tufts University. He
then spent over two decades in the Navy, deployed in both Navy hospitals and in active
duty with the Marine Corps; and entered private dental practice while serving in the
Naval Reserve.
While building his practice, Dr. Patch expanded his interests to Greek and Roman
history; which provided fertile ground for his fiction writing. He is a board member of
the Friends of Classics at San Diego State University.
Passage At Delphi is the first novel in a series exploring the confluence of the past,
present, and future with ordinary people
