\n\t\tExquisite Renition of TheTragic Sinking, March 20, 2012
\n\t\tBy Teri, WA

\n\t\tWhen I read through a newsletter from Anita a few weeks ago that her newest novel would soon be released and that it was about the Titanic, I knew I had to get it and get it quickly, as I'm a HUGE Titanic fan and have read a lot of books on this subject. Since Anita usually writes a series of books when she writes, I was hoping there would be a sequel, but at this point, I'm not sure. We'll just have to wait and see.\nThe story starts out with the sinking of the ship, with the main characters Ella Brown, who is a fictional character and with incorporating a real-life character into the story. This person happens to be Irene Corbett, an LDS woman from Utah, who strongly feels she needs to further her nursing skills in London in midwifery. She prays about this important undertaking, as she'll need to leave her husband and three young children for 6 months or more.\nElla, a young English girl, loses both of her parents, so is forced to live an impoverished life on the streets of London, winding up in the hospital in a life-threatening state, the same hospital Irene is working in. Irene feels a strong connection with Ella and they bond quickly. Irene finds a place for Ella to live, where in time, she finds work as a nanny. When Irene has finished her schooling, she books passage on this new ship that has been touted as being unsinkable. Ella is totally surprised when the family she works for also books passage on the Titanic for a vacation in America. Both women find the ship wonderful, especially with knowing the Titanic has many pianos onboard.\nWhen both ladies hear and feel the ship hitting the iceberg, they begin to gather a few things together. Ella loses sight of Irene when Irene puts her in a lifeboat. The next morning, when the ship Carpathia arrives where they expected the Titanic to be, they see nothing but lifeboats with survivors in them.\nDeeply shaken by this catastropic event, Ella finds comfort and healing in the care of rescue crewman Jonathan Moreau and his loving family. Can Ella ever find peace and happiness with the constant nightmares over this devastating event? This powerful novel evokes compassion, redemption, hope and survival as never before, as this really happened. \n\t\t

\n\t\tA must read for Anita and Titanic fans alike., March 08, 2012
\n\t\tBy Rhonda, UT

\n\t\tI loved reading this book. It was an interesting way to become acquainted with some of the people who sailed on Titanic. I love the story of Irene and the courage it took to leave her family to go to England. I also liked that we were able to see a little of what life might have been like for some of the survivors of this horrific event.\n\t\t

\n\t\tGreat Book!, July 01, 2012
\n\t\tBy Donna, AR

\n\t\tThis is the second or third book I have read by Anita Stansfield and I must say, it was a great read. It took me two weeks to get started but once I did, I could not put it down. I consider her to be my favorite LDS author and I will be reading more of her books.\n\t\t

\n\t\tTender, Compelling, and Haunting!, January 27, 2012
\n\t\tBy Dina , UT

\n\t\tThis love story transcends one of the most horrific events in the world\u2019s history. Although, we all know what the outcome was, in regard to the Titanic, you will have a new view of the raw emotions that were experienced by its survivors. \r\n\r\nAnita Stansfield demonstrates her gift for storytelling in \u201cPassage on the Titanic\u201d. She allows us to fall in love with Irene and Ella; Two friends brought together by a higher power. She weaves a story of heartache and loss and then brings us full circle to healing and living the life we\u2019re meant to live.\r\n\r\nI love the lesson of learning to listen to the promptings of the Spirit. It resonates continually throughout this book and it allowed me to see beyond the normal examples of daily life.\r\n\r\nAnd YES! There is a romance in store for Ella so hold on tight and get ready to be sucked in to the world of \u201cPassage on the Titanic\u201d.\r\n\r\nGo to http://anitastansfield.blogspot.com to read more and enter give aways!\n\t\t

\n\t\tAnother great read from Anita!, March 08, 2012
\n\t\tBy Terry, UT

\n\t\tI too loved this book! Anita gives us insight into what it must have felt like to not only endure this tragedy from the passengers point of view, but from the on-lookers (rescuers and those waiting on land for family & friends to arrive)perspective as well! I have quite a different mindset about the whole devastatingly horrific disaster!\n Thank you Anita!\n\t\t

\n\t\tAnother great read!, March 08, 2012
\n\t\tBy Terry, UT

\n\t\tI loved this book! Anita gives you a look at the world not only through a passenger's view point and experience, but anyone who was living at that time in history when they were either involved in, or helped with, the rescue efforts not to mention those on land waiting for the passengers arrival ! I received a different view point of the whole horrific tragedy.\n\t\t

\n\t\tPassage on Titanic is lacking, March 03, 2012
\n\t\tBy Lu Ann, UT

\n\t\tI am a fan of Anita Stansfield's writing but this new "Passage on the Titanic" would have been more interesting in short story form, in my opinion. She seemed to be 'reaching' to stretch this out.\nThe story line was good, it just seemed to be lacking interesting events.\n\t\t

\n\t\tI loved the way Anita entwined fact with fiction in her new book about the LDS midwife who died on the Titanic. Could not put it down., March 08, 2012
\n\t\tBy Judy, UT

\n\t\tIt was so timely for Anita's book to come out recently about the LDS woman who died on the Titanic. I had just heard the talk in conference referring to this woman. I knew the story of the two missionaries but not about Irene. When Elder Cook mentioned her story I wanted to know more. It was just recently that I met Anita and heard of her book. I had read previous fiction books by Anita so I wanted to see how she would entwine fact with fiction. I feel that Anita did capture the feelings that Irene would have felt. The courageous decisions she made to go to Engalnd. I could not put the book down. I would recommend this book to everyone. \n\t\t

\n\t\tI wanted it to go on., March 08, 2012
\n\t\tBy Darla, UT

\n\t\tI really enjoyed this book. It was interesting to find out a few facts about the passengers on the Titanic. Irene's story although sad touched me to know that she lived the gospel and loved so thoroughly. It also showed how God's hand is in all things as seen in the missionary's story. \r\nThe fictional part, Ella's story, was typical of Anita's ability to capture realistic struggles of man/woman. I just wish it hadn't ended so soon.\r\n\n\t\t

\n\t\tAmazing!, March 08, 2012
\n\t\tBy Darlene Anderson, UT

\n\t\tAnita does an amazing job of weaving fact & fiction into a beautiful story I couldn't put down! I was afraid I might not like this one since I'm not a big fan of all-things Titanic but I should have known better! It is a must read!\n\t\t

\n\t\tTouching to the heart, and a sweet romance., March 10, 2012
\n\t\tBy Bonnie, UT

\n\t\tPassage on the Titanic is a story of two very courageous women, who both make decisions that lead them to life changing experiences. I was very touched to read this book. Anita did a fantastic job of bringing you into the tragedy, and you truly feel the pain of what those survivors had to see and go through. It's also an example of how horrible things can lead to truly beautiful endings. Amazing story, and well written - one of Anita's best, in my opinion.\n\t\t
