The Day They Sank the Lusitania - Paperback

by Donald Barr Chidsey (Author)

The flaming hell that was World War I was laid bare by the brutal sinking of the Lusitania. Until then, no one -- particularly in neutral America -- was prepared for the coming holocaust. But on May 7, 1915, a German u-boat, lurking off the coast of Ireland, torpedoed the unarmed passenger ship Lusitania. The vessel sank in an incredible 18 minutes -- killing 1,195 men, women, and chilldren.
