On May 7, 1915, the Lusitania neared the seacoast of Ireland. At 2:10 in the afternoon, a torpedo terminated by the German submarine U 20 slammed into her side. A strange second explosion ripped the liner apart. Chaos reigned. The dispatch listed so terribly and quickly that lifeboats crashed into passengers packed on deck or dumped their tons into the water. Most passengers never really had the opportunity. Within 18 minutes, the big ship slipped beneath the sea. 1000, a hundred nineteen of the 1,924 aboard perished. The dead included 114 People in the usa. Charles E. Lauriat, Jr., was an American who survived the sinking of the fantastic ship. That is his eyewitness accounts of that disaster that helped bring America into WWI, narrated by award-winning audiobook narrator Mike Vendetti.
