Title: Fiction Rather Than Fact
Review: I have never heard of Stephen Cox but I have known Edward Brewster for more than 50 years. In all of those years I have never known him to lie or deceive anyone. I have heard Ed's story of the sinking of the Cedarville and his harrowing survival on numerous occasions. I know that he was NOT hospitalized after his rescue, nor, he tells me, was he interviewed by Mr. Cox. I have no idea why Mr. Cox would attribute inaccurate statements to Ed. The Cedarville collision and sinking was a disaster but to fictionalize the events makes one wonder why the book was written. The true story is a a dramatic tale without the need to fictionalize some events.
