Erik Larson at SCADshow
The latest book from #1 New York Times bestselling author and narrative nonfiction master Erik Larson, published on the anniversary of the sinking of the Lusitania.
It's a story many of us think we know, powerfully retold by the #1 New York Times bestselling author and master of narrative nonfiction, Erik Larson. On May, 1, 1915, a luxury ocean liner called the Lusitania set sail from New York to Liverpool, bearing 1,198 passengers on board. It would be the last trip the ship would ever make. In his new book, Dead Wake: The Last Crossing of the Lusitania, Larson brings to life the story of the ill-fated passenger liner, the Germans hunting it, and the cast of evocative characters living at the height of the American Progressive era. Full of glamour, mystery, and real-life suspense, Dead Wake captures the sheer drama and emotional power of a disaster that helped place America on the road to war.
Larson reads from, discusses and signs copies beginning at 7 p.m. This event is presented by the AJC Decatur Book Festival 365 and A Cappella Books.
