Amy asked Erik Larson:

Dear Mr. Larson, I just read "Dead Wake" and felt like to understood the political situation surrounding the Lusitania and World War I for the first time. I was captivated by your portrait of our somewhat distracted president at this time. When researching for your books, how do you decide which historical players to include and which to leave out?

Lanessa Arnhold asked Erik Larson:

I am attending your interview by Kerri Miller at the Fitzgerald theater on Friday March 27. I just finished listening to your book Dead Wake. When you are researching for a book, do you ever get caught up in the research and forget that you are wanting to write a book? Thanks, Lanessa
