Review # 1 was written on 2012-10-25 00:00:00 Marjorie Annapav I've a huge appetite for maritime history and the story of the Andrea Doria colliding with the Stockholm is a personal favorite. Of the many accounts I've read about this tragic event, this is, in my opinion, the best read. The survivor's stories stay with you and your heart breaks for the senselessness of it.

Review # 2 was written on 2016-02-15 00:00:00 Chaminda Senanayake Around the Year in 52 Books 2018 Reading Challenge. A book about surviving. A detailed, obviously well researched account of the wreck of the Andrea Doria and the Stockholm in 1956. By luck of many other ships being in the area most of the people aboard the Andrea Doria were saved. It is also important to note that she stayed afloat for 11 hours after the collision giving rescuers time to act. It is also necessary to state that both captains were at fault for this collision. An amazing tale.
