By Author Jeannette Haien "Matters of Chance is a work of fiction. All the characters who appear on the book's pages are imagined. Insofar as the lives of the imagined people were profoundly influenced by the events of WWII, History looms large in the narrative, and speaks for itself. As for the most part of the books action relating to the Liberty ship SS John T. Stubbins- to her missioned wartime voyage from Tacoma, Washington to Port Said I gratefully acknowledge the conselings given me by Captain Ronan Maurice Henderson.
