I thought the book was going to focus solely on the Titanic. I flew through her story of the sinking and the initial aftermath. Then it just dragged on for me about her life which didn’t interest me too much.

This is the autobiography of Miss Eva Hart, who survived the Titanic disaster when she was just 7 years old. At the time of this publication in 1992, she was in her 80's. Sadly, at the time I was reading this she has passed. Her story was an incredible one, but I must admit that I got a little bored reading her life after the sinking. It was a very short, quick read though - and she seemed like an amazing woman! This is the autobiography of Miss Eva Hart, who survived the Titanic disaster when she was just 7 years old.
