Tuesday, June 28, 2011 Book review Hero of the Titanic, review by Wini Caudell, published in the Vasa Star, April-June 2011:
History, drama and romance, this book has it all. You are hooked from the first chapter to the end. Hero of the Titanic starts where the Maiden of the Titanic left off and takes the reader on an incredible journey with Roberto thru racial prejudice, poverty and World War I in Europe. Through it all he remains a hero. Anna and Roberto's lives couldn't have been more different. Anna led a life of privilege while Roberto had to struggle for everything. He was the victim of robbery, falsely accused of murder and lost his house to a hurricane. In spite of everything he was determined to make a better life for himself and to report the stories of people who needed their stories told. Anna and Roberto remained friends thru the years with one common thread of that fateful night on April 12 [15], 1912. The historical details are wonderful and you'll learn about the emigrants who came to America and their struggles and soldiers who fought in the war to end all wars. The author has done a wonderful job of plot twists and surprises. It's impossible to put it down.
