5.0 out of 5 stars TITANIC's Bandmaster Plays On in Hymn for Eternity!, 10 Dec 2002
By Jean E. Martin (Dallas, Texas, USA) - See all my reviews
I've waited for a biography on Wallace Hartley, TITANIC's heroic bandmaster, for a very long time, and this book has fulfilled my expectations. Ms. Carroll has done astonishing detective work, tracing Wallace forward from his humble beginnings in Colne, Lancashire, through his budding musical career in the North of England and through 80 voyages across the Atlantic, on to his tragic collision with fate -- accepting a last minute request to lead the band on the doomed RMS TITANIC. Ms. Carroll's writing style is engaging and she knows how to build suspense; her book is a real page-turner! During James Cameron's TITANIC, people all over the world wept as Hartley and his orchestra played "Nearer My God to Thee." If you're curious about the charismatic young violinist who comforted TITANIC's passengers with music at the cost of his life, I can't recommend this book highly enough!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Hymn For Eternity, 22 Nov 2004
Such a wonderful recount of his life. i was really impressed as I come from the Hartley family. Wallace was a close relation of my grandad so it has been a real insight into the life of one of my family. an excellent read.
