FLIGHT OF DREAMS By Ariel Lawhon, Doubleday $25.95
br
There’s little chance that someone picking up this book doesn’t already know that it ends with the crash of Flight #3 of the German dirigible airship, Hindenburg. Using the names of actual passengers and crew the author imagines what might have occurred on that fateful flight. It’s historical fiction at its’ best: real people, their names at least, but what happens aboard is all the imagination and creativity of the author. Even knowing the ending doesn’t diminish the suspense.
