4.0 out of 5 stars A well written account., May 11, 2007

Ned Middleton (British professional underwater photo-journalist & author) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
Written by an acclaimed author, this book has clearly been well researched. Altogether, it provides those of us with an interest in the complete story of the loss of the Andrea Doria with what is probably the best book with which to commence. I say "commence" because this book was first published in 1979 and much more information has been discovered since that time.

As an underwater photo-journalist with a speciality in shipwrecks - and whilst I have yet to visit this particular wreck (though I certainly shall!), I am already conversant with the general story. Of all the accounts I have read, however, this one appears to be exceedingly well researched and reported. Now that I have read the book, it seems probable to me that many other accounts have commenced with this work before adding something (and in some cases nothing) of their own.

As I said, a good place to start for those interested in the loss of the Andrea Doria.
