Mr. McEachern graduated from Duke University with a Bachelor in Arts in Psychology and Religion. He earned his Juris Doctor and his Master’s in Law in Taxation from Fordham University School of Law and New York University School of Law, respectively. He practiced trusts, estates, and tax law for nearly forty years before becoming a full-time historian, writing novels of historical fiction.
He thoroughly researches and travels extensively to lend authenticity and realism to his works. To write New Caledonia: A Song of America, Mr. McEachern journeyed along both Braddock’s Road and the Great Wagon Road and visited many Revolutionary War battlefields, including King’s Mountain and Cowpens. His areas of expertise include the Roman Empire, early Christianity, Scotland, and United States history, emphasizing the American Revolution and the Civil War.
Mr. McEachern’s first novel, Casting Lots, which is the life story of the centurion who presided over the Crucifixion, garnered excellent reviews. His second novel, Caledonia: A Song of Scotland, explores Scottish history up to the Battle of Culloden and the beginning of the Highland Clearances. New Caledonia: A Song of America, the second novel in the Caledonia series, follows the Scots’ migration from Scotland to America as they walk the Great Wagon Road and finally settle in the Carolinas during the French and Indian War and the American Revolution.view less
