This is the first novel from Frank Buyak (buy ak ), who has authored many technical papers and has an extensive background in writing for business and industry. His professional work brought him to Washington, DC, Germany, and England, where he received recognition for his work. He is currently retired and living in Connecticut. The author, his older brother, and his mother were actually on the Aquatania making the crossing as described in the book. The author's mother was unable to book passage on the Athenia because of overbooking. Mrs. Buyak and her family waited in Glasgow for passage on the Aquatania. While the author and his family were at sea on the Aquatania, the house where they stayed at, #3 Dale Street in Glasgow, was bombed, killing all who lived there. A special thanks to the author's mother, Mary Buyak, who had the courage to bring her young family home, across the Atlantic, during the Second World War.
