Lancastria book expected out in paper back soon

Jonathan Fenby's book which appeared in hardback in June 2005 is expected to be published in paperback form early in the New Year. The book, "The sinking of the Lancastria - Britain's greatest maritime disaster and Churchill's cover-up" has sold widely across the UK and abroad and is expected to do well in paperback form.

Scottish playright George Rosie reviewed the book in the Sunday Herald's "greatest books of 2005 and concluded:

"The second world war continues to rumble along the bookshelves and I thought the most interesting of this year's output was The Sinking Of The Lancastria by Jonathan Fenby (Simon & Schuster £14.99)."
