Beyond the Book

Dead Wake: The Last Crossing of the Lusitania by Erik Larson

Wed, Nov 20 | 6:30pm

When war broke out in Europe in 1914, German forces embarked on an unprecedented method of attack - submarine warfare - turning transatlantic travel into a potentially deadly undertaking.  Experience the excitement, terror, and tragedy of the sinking of the Lusitania, the maritime disaster that helped draw America into the First World War.  During this educator-led discussion, examine a 19th century whalebone traveling trunk and imagine what you might have packed for a voyage.  Then, discover the surprising role whales played in the trenches and the deadly cost the war had for these creatures.
