SUMMARY:Laurence Gonzales at Lake Forest Book Store
DESCRIPTION:Laurence Gonzales\, author of Flight 232: A Story of Disaster and Survival\n\n(W. W. Norton $27.95)\n\nSaturday September 6 at 3:00 p.m.\n\nRegister at Lake Forest Book Store 847-234-4420\n\nPlease welcome author Laurence Gonzales as our "Guest Bookseller". He will be offering recommendations\, signing books\, and joining us for an engaging afternoon.   \n\nTwenty-five years after the catastrophe\, a dramatic and extraordinarily rare 360-degree view of the crash of a fully loaded jumbo jet. \n\nJournalist Gonzalez finds grace amid tragedy in his searing study of the fiery 1989 crash of United Airlines Flight 232: 184 of the 296 passengers survived\, and the drama unfolded over 44 nerve-wracking minutes while the pilots wrestled the plane towards an airport after an explosion destroyed the hydraulic controls\, a catastrophe that should have rendered the huge DC-10 jet unflyable. Working from extensive interviews with survivors and rescue workers\, Gonzalez presents a engrossing\, cinematic account of the crash and the ordeal that preceded it as crew and passengers prepared themselves for almost certain death. There's heroism here\, and dumbfounding twists of fate that allowed the lucky to step straight from flame and carnage into a sunlit Iowa cornfield with barely a scratch.
