Into the Mist
The Story of the Empress of Ireland
Langbeschreibung
From 1906 to 1914, the "Empress of Ireland," one of the fastest and most elegant liners of the era, graced the waters of the Atlantic Ocean only to sink in 14 minutes in the St. Lawrence River. Its true legacy, though, is the significant role it played in building Canada.
