Beschreibung:
Warren FitzGerald was born in 1973. His debut novel, The Go-Away Bird, was first published in 2010. It won an Amazon Rising Stars Award in the same year and in 2011 was longlisted for The Authors' Club Best First Book Award; it was also Waterstones Book of the Month in October 2011. For All in the Same Boat, he interviewed many of the surviving crew of MV Norland, to produce one of the most extraordinary true stories to come out of any war. He lives in London.
The story of the Norland, and the members of her catering crew, who, when the ferry was requisitioned in 1982 to transfer troops to the Falklands, went with her. Despite heavy bombing by the Argentinian air force, the troops and the crew survived intact while many ships were destroyed around it.
