review 1: I have always been fascinated by Carole Lombard and the air crash that took her life, so to read this book and discover new details as to the why, was illuminating. The author does a beautiful job of weaving the accident in between chapters of Carole's biography. Also, the author talks about the other people on board the plane, lest we forget there were other souls lost as well. The author has done his homework, because this book is well researched and documented.
review 2: A solid, appropriately emotional book on one of Hollywood's seldom spoken tragedies. The writing can get too conversational at times, and despite the attempt at neutrally presenting possible causes of the crash, the author greatly implies sabotage was the likeliest culprit. Not that ther... moree's anything wrong with that conclusion. Unlike the majority of books on Hollywood, "Fireball" is astoundingly researched, with plenty of fresh interviews and documentation to back up any claims. Recommended for anyone with an interest in film, Carole Lombard, Clark Gable, WWII, or just plain sob stories. 5/5. less
