There have been at least two books written about this story. One, "The Long Way Home" IIRC, is a factual retelling of the story. Can't remember the author's name but it was published by the small publishing hose Palawdr Press. Factual ( as far as is known) and a good read.The other was a poorly-written novel that I never finished (nor can I remember the title. Both are gone from my library now...
A truly heroic tale of American ingenuity and persistence; I wish that a 314 had been saved to better remember what the Pan Am crews did.
