Daughters of Erebus
Holmes, Paul
Notes
Summary: The crash of a giant DC-10 airliner on the lower slopes of Antarctica's Mount Erebus in broad daylight in late November 1979 remains one of New Zealand's greatest disasters. Everyone on board - 257 people - was killed instantly and the aircraft disintegrated to nothing but a black smear on the snow. This is the story of Captain Jim Collins's family - his wife Maria and his four daughters - who endured not only the death of a beloved husand and father, but the injustice of his being wrongly blamed for the disaster.
