EDITORS COMMENTS
This and poignant three-page poem, titled "Sinking of The Lusitania," is a rare find from the early 1910s. Written by Lewis O. Baker and R.W. Cure, this pamphlet offers a moving tribute to the tragic sinking of the RMS Lusitania on May 7, 1915. The Lusitania, a British ocean liner, was torpedoed by a German U-boat off the coast of Ireland, resulting in the loss of over 1,100 lives, including 128 American citizens. The verses in this pamphlet beautifully capture the emotion and sorrow surrounding this historic event. The poets' words flow seamlessly, painting a vivid picture of the ship's final moments and the devastating aftermath. The poem's title page bears the date of circa 1915, and the price of twopence is indicated, suggesting that it was intended for a wide audience. This rare pamphlet is an essential piece of literature from the early 20th century, offering a unique perspective on a pivotal moment in history. The verses, penned by Baker and Cure, serve as a poignant reminder of the human cost of war and the enduring power of poetry to evoke emotion and reflection. This precious artifact invites us to pause and remember the lives lost during the sinking of the RMS Lusitania.
