‎Zustand: Sehr gut. - OT: " Dead Wake. The Last Crossing of the Lusitania". - Die größte Schiffstragödie des 1. Weltkriegs Die Lusitania: das Schiff, dessen Untergang den Ersten Weltkrieg entschied.Das Drama der Lusitania: Das Schiff, dessen Untergang den Ersten Weltkrieg entschied. Am 7. Mai 2015 ist es 100 Jahre her, dass das amerikanische Passagierschiff Lusitania während des Ersten Weltkriegs von einem deutschen U-Boot angegriffen wurde und 1200 Menschen dabei ihr Leben verloren. Schuld war ein Zweikampf zwischen den Kapitänen: Walther Schwieger, der deutsche U-Boot-Kommandant, der ohne Warnung auch zivile Schiffe angreifen ließ; und William Turner, der erfahrene amerikanische Kapitän der Cunard-Linie, der entgegen allen Warnungen niemals glaubte, dass so etwas wirklich passieren könnte. - Aus diesem Ereignis lässt Erik Larson eine atemberaubende Reportage entstehen: So ungewöhnlich, dass der Leser insgeheim zu hoffen beginnt, das Schicksal der Lusitania könnte doch noch eine andere Wendung nehmen.

‎UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK. IN THE MATTER OF THE PETITION OF THE CUNARD STEAMSHIP COMPANY LIMITED AS OWNERS OF THE STEAMSHIP "LUSITANIA" FOR LIMITATION OF ITS LIABILITY. THE "LUSITANIA" OPINION OF COURT‎

‎New York 1918. Original printed front wrapper with wrapper title as issued. 45 1 blank pp. Disbound lacking rear wrapper light rubberstamp on blank portion of wrapper. Else Very Good. Inscribed on front wrapper "To Mr. Arthur H. Masten with the warm regard of Julius M. Mayer." The Cunard Steamship Company sought an adjudication that it was not liable for the horrific deaths and personal injuries suffered when a German U-Boat sank the Lusitania in 1915. Judge Mayer concludes after examining the evidence "The proof is absolute" that the "illegal act" of the German submarine commander targeting a civilian and unarmed vessel caused the tragedy. Germany acted in violation of a "simple humane and universally accepted principle" of international law that such a bedrock rule "would not be violated." Judge Mayer thus holds that the Cunard Company is not liable for the deaths and injuries. However he says "it is not to be doubted that the United States of America and her Allies will well remember the rights of those affected by the sinking of the Lusitania and when the time shall come will see to it that reparation shall be made for one of the most indefensible acts of modern times." Mayer formerly New York's attorney general was born and raised in New York City a graduate of CCNY and Columbia Law School. According to the Wisconsin Jewish Chronicle 22 September 1922 Mayer was one of only two Jewish United States District Judges. unknown‎

‎Lusitania: Beattie Allan‎

‎AUTOGRAPH LETTER SIGNED "LOVE TO ALL ALLAN" FROM ALLAN BEATTIE TO MARC BOWMAN A TWELVE-PAGE SURVIVOR'S ACCOUNT OF THE SINKING OF THE LUSITANIA‎

‎Folkestone England 1915. 12pp. Pen and ink on letterhead of Coman's Hotel 21 & 23 Castle Hill Avenue. 15 lines per page approximately 750 words. Quarto. With typed transcript. Old folds large pinhole in top center margin. Old envelope of Lewis-Clark Hotel Lewiston Idaho with "Allan Beatty's letter" in ink. Fine. In a half morocco and cloth box leather labels. A dramatic and detailed account by a survivor of the sinking of the Lusitania. Allan Beattie eighteen of Winnipeg travelling Second Cabin with his mother Grace was sitting on the hurricane deck when the ship was struck. "I got an awful smash in the back from the water and was thrown about thirty feet on my face. I got up and ran down stairs people were pouring up from the decks below and I caught sight of Mother. I ran up to her and kissed her goodbye then I lost her for a while.I thought to myself I haven't much of chance if I don't get a life belt so I thought a minute and then rushed down to my own stateroom and grabbed my own belt.I had to hang on the side of my bed to get a hold of it. The lights were practically all out." He gave away the first life belt he found then went down three decks to his stateroom to get his own life belt. Returning topside despite "a pretty hard time" he met his mother again. "She says 'I am not nervous I don't think there is much danger do you' I replied that 'It looked about as bad as it could' and I told her to take my life belt but she refused I made her put it on after promising that I would get another. I kissed her goodbye again and just as I got the top straps of her life belt tied the boat went down. I was sent sliding the whole width of the deck." Allan was flung free and was soon picked up by a life boat. He describes how the boat soon became perilously crowded. When another boat was located survivors were shifted across. In due course his boat was rescued by the Flying Fish and the survivors were brought to Queenstown. Beattie whose first name is given as "Allen" in the NEW YORK TIMES list of survivors writes his correspondent: "Mother is gone and altho we have not heard of her I don't think that she can be alive." Beattie appears to have been one of the Lusitania survivors who were profoundly traumatized by the incident. He was rejected from military service because of poor eyesight and was reported to have suffered a series of breakdowns beginning in 1920 and was unable to hold steady employment. A remarkable detailed narrative by a survivor of one of the most notorious maritime disasters of the 20th century written in the immediate aftermath of the event by a young man whose actions show proof of calmness in the tumult. hardcover‎

‎Life Magazine, Vol. 67, No. 1746, April 13, 1916 "HUMILIATION ISSUE"‎

‎42 pages. A fascinating and important issue devoted to rousing American anger against Germany, particularly as a result of U.S. lives lost in the sinking of the Lusitania. Clearly, the people behind Life Magazine wanted the United States to become involved in WWI. Readers may draw parallels to recent history when 'fanatical Muslims' allegedly carried out the 9/11 attack, thus providing a pretext for George W. Bush to thrust his country into war in the Middle East. Covers detached from textblock. Last page almost loose. Unmarked. Above-average wear but still a quality copy of this significant piece of the historical record of America's road to entry into World War One. Magazine‎
