Autorenporträt
Celia Hayes has always been passionately interested in the history of the American frontier. She was brought up in an eccentric, baby-boom family which formed the basis of a memoir, Our Grandpa Was an Alien. She earned a degree in English, served for 20 years in the US Air Force, and another ten years as a secretary and office administrator in various large and small business enterprises. Currently, she is the owner of Watercress Press, a small local subsidy press specializing in local history.

Her first novel, To Truckee's Trail, grew out of a fascination with the California emigrant trail. The Adelsverein Trilogy, and its companion novels - Daughter of Texas, Deep in the Heart, The Quivera Trail, and Sunset & Steel Rails drew on an interest in the German settlement of the Texas Hill Country, and the dramatic sweep of history in the Lone Star State. She has also authored a collection of adventures intended for younger readers, Lone Star Sons, set in the time of the Republic of Texas. With her daughter, Jeanne Hayden, she has also co-authored Chronicles of Luna City, and The Second Chronicle of Luna City, a collection of comic short stories set in present-day small town South Texas. The third volume of Luna City stories is due out in November, 2016, as well as another historical novel about the California Gold Rush -- The Golden Road.
