    Other Ships How did the Lusitania break in half?

I know this particular cross section was a distinct weak point in the ship as it included several...

    Lusitania dog kennels

    Has anyone ever found out where the dog kennels were on the Lusitania? I have looked and looked over the years and found no mention of them, yet I have seen photos of passengers with dogs onboard. I assume they would be in the same location as on the Mauritania. I also assume by the time the...

    RMS Lusitania: Seek and Destroy

    This is a great documentary about the Lusitania. It's an older one but I'd highly recommend it. Just a bit of help with its soundtrack though; What's the name of the tune that begins at 5:56? Again many thanks, Jack.

    I have discussed this topic with my friends for some time and I wanted to get other people’s opinions on this topic. If the RMS Olympic sank in any point during her life, when would the ship sunk, what would have caused it, and what would the wreck look like? I theorize that the Olympic would...
