Port List: A Short Historical Romance of the 1915 Eastland Disaster (American Ashes #18)
Gordon J. MacKenzie
Chicago River, July 24, 1915. The excursion steamer Eastland heels at the pier and rolls onto her side in seconds. Nora, a switchboard operator who counts first and panics later, and Patrick, a tugman with rope and a bar, pry portholes, haul survivors into the brown light, and turn a warehouse into a rescue line. Inspired by the real Eastland disaster, this one-sitting love story lands on earned hope and the quiet heroism that keeps pulling until the river gives back.
Includes a Historical Note and an Author’s Note. Reading ~25–30 minutes. Clean/slow-burn; rich period detail.
