Description
In the early hours of May 29, 1914, the Canadian Pacific Ship EMPRESS OF IRELAND plunged to the bottom of the St. Lawrence River taking 840 passengers to their deaths. It was the worst disaster in the golden age of transatlantic travel as more passengers went down with the EMPRESS OF IRELAND than with either TITANIC or LUSITANIA. Forgotten Empress reveals the complete history of this ship; her death throes; the official Inquiry; salvage efforts; and the unusual connection between the Captain of the EMPRESS OF IRELAND and the infamous London cellar murderer Dr. Crippen.
