Historical fiction based on tragedies or events largely lost to the past are particularly intriguing to me. This kind of explosion was relatively common in those days, making me think that traveling this way was much more dangerous than flying today is. I wonder if they worried about it enough that some refused to use this mode of transportation. I like the cover, too...need to look closer at this one.Sam https://www.blogger.com/profile/17448913705757509608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32315311.post-20888721419874220182021-03-06T18:00:00.178-08:002021-03-06T18:00:00.178-08:00I had seen the cover of this book but never took t...I had seen the cover of this book but never took the time to read the blurb but now I need it!

In this story, I would probably end researching about the ship. But yes, I know what you mean. I get like that as well. <br /><br />Lovely review, Susan.

Sometimes I love both timeline stories equally, but usually I prefer the one in the past where all the interesting stuff is going on. :)Lark https://www.blogger.com/profile/13777891312147377769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32315311.post-73836409620739580782021-03-05T06:28:30.280-08:002021-03-05T06:28:30.280-08:00I’ve never heard of this book or the ship it’s bas...I’ve never heard of this book or the ship it’s based on!
