Erik Larson: Dead Wake (2017, Random House Audio)
audio cd
Am 5. September 2017 von Random House Audio veröffentlicht.
It is a story that many of us think we know but don't, and Erik Larson tells it thrillingly, switching between hunter and hunted while painting a larger portrait of America at the height of the Progressive Era. Full of glamour and suspense, Dead Wake brings to life a cast of evocative characters, from famed Boston bookseller Charles Lauriat to pioneering female architect Theodate Pope to President Woodrow Wilson, a man lost to grief, dreading the widening war but also captivated by the prospect of new love.
Very interesting story of the multiple motivations and perspectives that led to the Lusitania disaster.
