Peggy Webb is one of my favorite authors. This story was a wonderful link between the characters in this short to the book, ONLY YESTERDAY. In CHRISTMAS IN TIME we get to see a little of Gilly's early life before we meet her again in the latter stages of her life in ONLY YESTERDAY.Glimpses of what the sailing must have been like with the "Unsinkable" Molly Brown planning parties and hosting elegant dinners, the mix of people from all stations in life and the wonderful music provided by talented musicians, who reports say in real life played hymns as the ship sank. The entire orchestra was lost that night as they played on the deck to help calm the passengers.I have been reading through reviews on this site and have to say that I encourage some to re-read as nowhere in the book does the author say the ship sails from America to England. It is a given (historical fact) that it sailed from England to America. Gilly accompanied her father TO England and sailed HOME on the Titanic's Maiden Voyage.Please take the opportunity to experience the story for yourselves. You will enjoy it.
