Dark Descent by Kevin F. McMurray
The history and wreck of the Empress of Ireland from it's creation to today. Many lives lost during the collision of two ships just before WWI and the deaths coming in later years as divers discover and explore this massive wreck.
Very good book in my opinion. Touches on the national pride of Canadians, the separatist movement in Quebec, strong personalities of world class wreck divers, and of course a little history of inernational travel before airlines became the standard.
