Thanks, Greg, for sharing this book and for helping to make more people aware of the Halifax disaster. It's an important part of Canadian history, and I'm grateful that this book will make it more well-known. People went through so much, at a time when the world was in turmoil.
Thanks! I had heard of it, but only sort of vaguely and in the context of the Boston Christmas tree. The book really brought it home.
