Did you like “City On Fire”?
I had a hard time reading it. Not becaise of the content.
The author’s writing style bothered me. It was disjointed and hard to follow.
Well, it’s been a few years since I read it. I don’t remember having a problem with the style.
As I said I was intrigued by the story since my son was a fireman in Texas City at the time I was reading the book. So I might not have noticed problems with the style.
What amazed me after reading the book was that I knew two people who lived thru the explosion as children and were mentioned in the book. Before then I never knew they were involved.
I thought another good book about the Texas Gulf Coast was “Issac’s Storm”.
It’s about the great Galveston hurricane of 1900 that killed between 6000-10000 people.
