Paperback. Condition: New. 'The masterful, compelling story of salvaging RMS Empress of Ireland, as told by one of the liner's foremost historians.' - J. Kent Layton, co-author of On a Sea of Glass and Recreating Titanic and Her SistersIt started with two photographs.These old prints, up for online auction, showed Royal Navy sailors carrying a buoy on a wharf on a Canadian river, with the Pointe-au-Père lighthouse in the background. David Saint-Pierre knew that this had only happened once - when the crew of HMS Essex helped salvage RMS Empress of Ireland. Her sinking at the mouth of the St Lawrence river remains the worst peacetime maritime disaster in Canadian history, with a death toll of over 1,000 people. More passengers died on the Empress of Ireland than on Titanic two years prior.But these images were just the beginning. When Saint-Pierre made contact with the seller, he discovered that they were part of an album of over 500 pictures that told a story that history had largely forgotten: the diving and salvage on the wreck in the summer of 1914, by an international team that featured North American divers working alongside Royal Navy sailors. In the Wake of the Empress of Ireland is that story and more, exploring the aftermath of the Empress disaster.…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A fascinating insight through rare photographs into the aftermath of the horrific 1914 sinking, across rescue, salvage and investigations. It started with two old photos for sale at auction: Royal Navy sailors carrying a buoy on a wharf on the St. Lawrence. Historian David Saint-Pierre knew that the only time this happened was when the crew of HMS Essex helped with the salvage operations following the sinking of the Empress of Ireland, on 29 May 1914, the worst peacetime maritime disaster in Canadian history, that saw the deaths of over 1,000 people. This led to the discovery of a whole album containing more than 500 photographs, including many showing how the aftermath of the disaster unfolded, and a complex and stressful process ensued to deliver the album safely to him after he arranged to purchase it in its entirety, having realised it's great importance. Thanks to these newly discovered photos, showing diving and salvage on the wreck in the summer of 1914, this book is an original contribution on a largely forgotten page of maritime history. AUTHOR: David Saint-Pierre is a historian based in Montreal, Canada, who has been researching the history of the ill-fated steamship RMS Empress of Ireland since the mid-1990s. He has collaborated on documentaries and TV shows and with other authors, and has published two books on this subject. 195 b/w illustrations A fascinating insight through rare photographs into the aftermath of the horrific 1914 sinking rescue, salvage and investigations Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. …
