Doc Ford Novels
Marine biologist Marion 'Doc' Ford, who lives in an old stilthouse on the west coast of Florida, is a quiet, likable member of the Dinkin's Bay Marina community. But he is also a mystery to the collection of tropical bums, fishing guides and yachting gunkholers who are his neighbors. Why does Doc sometimes disappear for weeks at a time without explanation? Only his Zen Buddhist, hipster pal, Tomlinson, knows (or suspects) the biologist is a 'zero signature' professional who works for a deep cover state department agency. Readers who appreciate carefully researched fact-based insights into the complexities of Florida's natural and social history will love Doc Ford.

Praise for the Doc Ford Novels
-
“Anyone who insists mysteries can’t also be ‘real literature’ should be duct-taped to a chair and handed a novel by Randy Wayne White.”
WASHINGTON TIMES
-
“Packed with finely drawn characters, relevant social issues, superb plotting and an effortless writing style. White has produced a virtually perfect piece of work.”
DENVER POST
-
“White is willing to take risks, which is why he is one of the few best-selling authors today worthy of the title ‘writer.’”
FORT WORTH STAR-TELEGRAM
Enter the Doc Ford World
Just as Randy’s novels are inspired by these islands, his days on the water, and the people he came to know, the Doc Ford themed sports bars and Cuba expeditions were inspired by the marine biologist who is the main character of those novels.
Doc Ford is the baseball-loving, tropical adventurer who - not so surprisingly - has spent a lot of time in the same far flung countries that Randy wrote about when he was a monthly columnist — places such as Cuba, Cambodia, South Africa, Australia, Vietnam, Borneo, and all over South and Central America. It was while traveling for Outside and other magazines he came to know and love the superb cuisine and landscapes of the rural tropics.
