Summary: great
Review: This book was really great and it's going to be hard for me to talk about it without revealing the ending. Anna's grandfather dies and she believes his last wish is for her to take the trip they had planned to the Hindenburg and go to America. She tells her brother Kurt this but he says there is no way he will let her go. Instead he wants her to go with him to Berlin to find a man for her to marry. To escape this, she sends her brother away and gets on the Hindenburg. But traveling alone scares her and she quickly finds someone to pretend to be her traveling companion. Erik Peterson seems to be the perfect compainion for the trip. But then she runs into her old love, Karl, and things become mixed up. It really is an exciting adventure and a great love story. Definitely a good read along with Washington Avalanche 1910.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excillent!
Review: This book was very good! It was written very well. The idea is very good. It wasn't like all of those other books where it moves along so slowly and is very boaring. This book was ezciting all the way threw. The ending will come as a surprise. I was shocked when I read the end. It was sad, but very good. I love this book! This is a very good book for anyone looking to smile and cry at the same time. This book is perfect for every girl looking for a good book to read.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent and touching
Review: This book was very real and touching. It really touches down on how your can want two people at the same time. It also makes you realize that you should listen to your heart not only your mind and that you can find love again even after you though you had lost it forever.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Suspenseful
Review: This book's ending surprised me. I thought I has all of the characters figured out, but in the end I did not. I enjoy it when a book can fool me in this way. I would recommend this book to young adults who want a touch of romance with a setting based upon an actual historical event. The ending is so suspenseful you won't want to put it down.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the Best
Review: This is one of the best books that I have ever read. It takes place when WWII is beginning and her granfather dies a sudden, tragic death. Anna goes aboard the Hindenburg thinking it is her grandfather's dying wish. As it is unsafe for a young woman of 16 to travel alone, she hunts for a male companion. She meets Erik, a dashing young man who is eager to help her. Aboard she meets Karl, an man who has broken her heart. She is unsure of who to trust, Karl or Erik. The end is such a tragedy; I believe that anyone who buys this book will be delighted with it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Amazing
Review: This is the most beautiful historical romance fiction I've ever read. Anna must escape her brother in order to persue a future of her choice, instead of letting her brother choose it for her. So she aboards the Hindenburg and the excitement begins. I love this book to no ends even with its terrifying ending. Why Cameron, why??? I just have one last question: why choose a sad and-you know it's true- horrible ending when the story could've ended with me smiling in pleasure with hope, instead of me crying and believing that fate is truly twisted when it comes to love?

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: History and Romance Swept Together
Review: Unyielding love, fateful tragedy, and simmering passions ignite the fiery pages of Cameron Dokey's Hindenburg, 1937. This novel is based on true events that occurred a few years prior to WWII. In the midst of Nazi rule, Anna Becker has just lost her grandfather, a man she deeply loved and admired. Now all Anna has left in the world is her older brother, Kurt, a member of the Nazi Party. Kurt is willing to marry Anna off to another Nazi official in order to further his own Nazi career. Unable to live such a life, Anna flees Frankfurt and boards the Hindenburg, the zeppelin aircraft heading to America. She meets Erik Peterson, a handsome young man who is mysteriously charming. But also on the Hindenburg is Karl Mueller, the man who left Anna broken hearted. Karl is undoubtedly a Nazi spy, and Anna's fear is masked by her passionate emotions for him.
Aboard the Hindenburg, Anna is forced to decide whom she should trust and as fate collides with the large helium airship, she must make a decision that will alter her future.
Inside the airship, a single spark could ignite the helium, threatening the lives of the Hindenburg's passengers. This novel goes that extra mile, bringing together true events and combining well-developed characters that are both memorable and loveable. The charismatic Erik, the dangerous Karl, the intelligent Anna, are the three main forces that drive this novel to perfection. Confined in the airship, soaring above the Atlantic Ocean, these three young people confront each other and confront what is to come.
Dokey's wit and charm is proven through the interactions between the main characters. The love triangle that develops amidst the dangers and deception is riveting to read; I could hardly put the book down. With the conclusion of each chapter, our heroine faces yet another barrier to struggle with, all building up to the explosive climax. Anna's character is easy to relate to. She's a courageous young woman facing a tremendous journey. Her triumphs and failures help us to understand her deepest convictions.
Packed with romance, intrigue and danger, this novel delivers just the right punches. When the last page has been reached and the final words have been read, the story will remain with the reader, haunting us with its unforgettable events. Hindenburg, 1937 is an amazing book, one that entwines the reader, leaving us satisfied yet craving more.
