Really great read with a lot of interesting historical info
Eric Larson is an awesome author. The only problem I have with this particular bit is that it jumps around a little too much and Mr. Larson is a tad long winded when telling the tale. Having said that, I love reading his books and would recommend them to anyone looking for a serious read.Read full review

Morse code, Dr. Crippen and history
The book is very suspenseful and exciting and hard to put down.
It is the story of Guglielmo Marconi And how he made history and the story of Morse code and the ruthless fight to see who will be the first one to bring Morse code through the waves of air.
This is also the story of the horrifying Dr. Crippen and old England. Dr. Crippen was a meek and mild man who was a doctor of some kind and his boisterous wife Belle, The would-be singer and then we learn of Ethel Le Neve.
This book intertwines between all above. Hard to put the book down and I recommend it highly.Read full review

Reading all Erik Larson books
Devil in the White City was possibly the best book I've ever read. Thunderstruck is, so far, almost as good.
