“Gershwin’s Last Waltz and Other Stories” by Frank Frost is now available for purchase
“Dappled sunlight falling through the mulberry trees found a tableau of suddenly still figures on what had been a busy pedestrian byway. Couples had stopped to listen, their arms around each other. Shopkeepers were coming out of their doors, smiling and looking up, mystified at the swelling melody that filled the block.”

Author Reputation Press is proud to announce the release of “Gershwin’s Last Waltz and Other Stories” by Frank Frost. This is now available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, ARP website, and other leading online bookstores.
Frank Frost is professor emeritus of Ancient Greek History and Archaeology at the University of California, Santa Barbara. He is also a cook, a working jazz pianist, a former rugby player, and novelist. Frank and his wife, Amanda, split their time between Santa Barbara and Provence, where he is compiling a cookbook.
He wrote several books about ancient Greek history and over fifty scholarly articles. He also worked as an archaeologist in Greece, Turkey, and Italy, both on land and underwater. He was not only able to read about the people he studied but also to see their ancient homes, handle the objects from their daily lives, and see the lands they lived in. These experiences gave his published work greater depth and perspective. His “Greek Society” has been in print for 45 years, through five editions, and still pays royalties.
His novel “Dead Philadelphians” was listed in The Los Angeles Times Book Review among the best fiction of 1999: “Wonderful taut, flexible prose, not a word wasted… a compulsive page-turner.”
