Title: Bad History, Worse Grammar
Review: If this author was a product of the Westminster School and George Washington University, both institutions should pay him to quit saying so. He has a "newly installed wireless telegraph" on a mail steamer in 1883. That's 12 years before my World Almanac credits Marconi with the invention of radio!DuBrul doesn't have a good handle on the objective case, one example being "For he and Alan". Another stunning sentence reads "Could all they have wanted was a giant hole and not the copper?" These examples of poor language skills may be due to sloppy editing, common in thrillers, but even if that's so, Onyx won't be selling me any more of duBrul's books!
