What should have been.

Remembering Britannic, 21 November 1916 - 21 November 2023. #Britannic

Our ongoing commitment to bring you facts and help recreate the era of Lusitania and the many liners of the golden era on the Atlantic continues!

This video is performed on a Lusitania-era 1905 piano, and features two Lusitania songs. 'Lusitania Intermezzo' is a world premiere, likely not heard since 1915 or earlier; it will appear on Volume 2 of our 'Liners of the Golden Era' album at HFX Studios. 'Lusitania Waltzes', which was included in Volume 1 of our album back in April 2023, is a remarkable piece of music that has garnered a lot of attention in the last seven months.

Enjoy these two songs, and stay tuned here for more updates on our upcoming book and virtual museum experience! #lusitania #hfxstudios #accutonepiano

This evening, our book "On a Sea of Glass" hit #10 in the Ship History category for sales on Amazon US. Tad, Bill, and I appreciate all the support from readers over the last decade and more since the book was first released! #titanic #onaseaofglassbook

Please do not miss this important post from the original page for our upcoming two-volume book set, 'Lusitania: An Illustrated Biography'. This post includes important text information and a link to the high-resolution version of this illustration we've prepared showing why we know the torpedo struck Lusitania much further aft than is commonly thought. We feel it is very important to place this corrective post in the public record to help set that record straight quickly. #lusitania

One-hundred-thirteen years ago today, Harland & Wolff Yard No. 400, TSS Olympic, was launched. (At the time, TSS, or 'triple-screw ship', was a correct designation; similarly, before they had entered service, Lusitania and Mauretania had been referred to as QTSS for their quartet of turbine engines.) When Olympic started down the ways, she became the largest moving object in the world, a trophy that her slightly lighter sister Titanic would not take at the moment of her launch the following May. (Yes, it's true.) When Olympic launched, Cunard's Mauretania lost the title of world's largest moving object, although she retained the title of being the largest ship in service until June 1911. #Titanic #ships #liners #rmsolympic #whitestarline #belfast ...

Remembering David McCallum, who is known to Titanic enthusiasts for playing Harold Bride in 1958's "A Night To Remember", and as the narrator of the best Titanic documentary ever made, "Titanic: Death of a Dream" and "Titanic: The Legend Lives On." He also starred in the hit television series NCIS as Ducky.

In honor of the 116th anniversary of Lusitania's final night at sea on her maiden voyage to New York, we are sharing this splendid image with you. Stay tuned for more updates on both the book and the upcoming virtual museum experience "Lusitania: The Greyhound's Wake" from HFX Studios! #lusitania
