description: Madeleine Crowley tells the story of her grandfather, Arthur W. Newell, who was born in Chelsea, MA in 1854 and perished in the cold waters of the North Atlantic in April 1912. He had a remarkable life. Although he had a modest background and a limited education, Arthur rose to prominence as the President of the Fourth National Bank of Boston. Yet he always remained a man devoted to his wife and three daughters and to service in his community. The reader follows the Newell family through their daily lives at the turn of the century and discovers the values that will sustain them through the tragedy that lies ahead. It is a story of drama and heartache which, though often retold, is always fresh and inspiring when seen through the eyes of real people-his two daughters who survived the sinking of the Titanic.
