Below is a description of the book taken from the RI Talking Books Plus Catalog
In 1915 the Lusitania, a luxury ocean liner, left New York for Liverpool. The captain assumed that the Germans would follow gentlemanly strictures of warfare, keeping civilian ships safe from attack. Larson recounts what happened when Germany violated that code and that choice’s wider repercussions. Unrated. Commercial audiobook. 2015.
