The saga of the Lusitania is one of the most remarkable in the annals of maritime history. State-of-the-art when she went into service and the first express liner to be equipped with steam turbines, she outclassed all her rivals. She triumphantly restored British supremacy on the North Atlantic passenger routes and became an acknowledged commercial success; she was highly popular with her regular passengers. Her sinking in May 1915 by a German U-boat, with heavy loss of life, was at that time the most savage attack on civilians in the course of war, and was widely denounced in allied and neutral countries. From that day her loss has become encrusted with legends (including conspiracy theories), many of them created by German propaganda. In this new book David Ramsay has unraveled those myths and legends and tells a clear and compelling saga of terrible maritime disaster and clashes among three powerful nations. It is a story of potentates and presidents, ambassadors and ministers of state, bankers, shipping magnates, spies, and, not least, Captain William Turner, who had to defend himself against charges of incompetence and fight for his reputation. Based on detailed research, this new book almost certainly contains the most objective account of the history of the liner and the circumstances surrounding her sinking. The sinking of Lusitania, which took a mere eighteen minutes, led to a loss of life comparable with the Titanic disaster, and the ramifications were felt across Europe and America; this masterly telling of the story will intrigue the general reader as much as it does the historian and enthusiast.

Excerpt: ... were prescribed, with great advantage, by several of the physicians of the city. But the use of them was not restricted to the physicians alone; the clergy, the apothecaries, many private citizens, several intelligent women, and two black men prescribed them with great success. Nay more, many persons prescribed them to themselves. It was owing to the almost universal use of these remedies that the mortality of the disease diminished in proportion as the number of persons who were affected by it increased. It is probable that not less than six thousand of the inhabitants of Phila dangerous diseases, are without foundation. His system reprobates all prescriptions, but those that are founded on their suitableness to the present circumstances of the patient. His treatment of the yellow fever in twelve successive years is distinctly laid down in his works, and is not precisely the same in any two years. In a letter dated October 15th, 1803, which the author received from him, Dr. Rush observes: "Our epidemic has been more tractable, than in some former years. I have bled sparingly, purged freely, blistered early, (sometimes on the first day) sweated profusely, with almost universal success. The last remedy was suggested to me by the moisture which I found upon touching the wrists in my first visits to my patients. I have not found it necessary to salivate in a single case. The violent pain and inflammation excited on the arms by the blisters, was a substitute for a sore mouth, and happily saved the stomach and brain by a new and revulsive action on the fourth and fifth days." To those who charged Dr. Rush with using strong mercurial medicines for ordinary complaints, he replied "that he was not in the habit of destroying musquetoes with cannon bullets." M delp...
