Om denne bog

On 7 May 1915, one of the most beloved and legendary liners of the North Atlantic was torpedoed by a German U-boat, taking 1,187 of her passengers and crew to an untimely demise. She had become a victim of the First World War, the most brutal conflict the world had yet seen.

Lusitania: An Illustrated Biography is a comprehensive two-part look at her entire story, from her origins in the shipyards of Clydebank to her terrible, tragic end. It reveals her as she has never been seen before through words, historical photographs, and breath-taking computer-rendered imagery.

Volume Two: A Greyhound’s Downfall joins Lusitania on the eve of war, just days after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand. It tells her story through the First World War, to her violent sinking and the repercussions in her wake; it details how her name, once synonymous with technological marvels and magic, became a rallying cry on the battlefields.

Prepare to take a journey back in time. Step aboard one of the largest, fastest and most beloved ocean liners of all time – a triumph of the Edwardian era – and relive her complete history in all its splendour.
