Default Lusitania disaster

Hello,
The sinking of the Lusitania was as big a disaster as the Titanic but has never caught the public's imagination in the same way. Lusitania carried 1,959 passengers onher last voyage, 413 of them were crew. 139 were Americns and of thos, 128 lost their lives. A total of 1198 people died. These sites, among others, are worth a visit, the first one being accounts from survivors.
