Written by Nicholas Tomalin

A dramatised examination of the people and politics, facts and suspicions, that surround the last voyage and tragic sinking of the Lusitania in May 1915. She was struck by a single torpedo off the Irish coast and sank in less than 18 minutes; 1,195 people died, many of them women and children, some of them American.
Was it an atrocity for which the Germans were solely responsible? Or was it calculated strategy by which Winston Churchill, then First Lord of the Admiralty, ensured that America would enter the war on the side of the hard-pressed Allies? New evidence is examined in the Old Court House, Kinsale, Ireland - where the original inquest was held.
