Weidenfeld and Nicolson London 1995. Hard cover dust wrapper 4to 228pp b&w and colour photos and paintings by Ken Marschall. A little wear on edges and scrunched corners. Small tear on top dw edge, now protected. In 1993, Ballard led an expedition to study the wreck of the Lusitania to try and come up with answers as to why she sank so quickly after being struck by a German torpedo in May 1915. Ballard's conclusions provide a fascinating account of what happened on that fateful day. This relates those conclusions, but also provides an illustrated history of the Lusitania, and features Ballard's underground photography as well as paintings and archival material.
