Ghost Soldiers meets The Perfect Storm in the remarkable true story of the sinking of the S.S. City of Benares In September 1940, ninety lucky English children were placed aboard the S.S. City of Benares by their parents, bound from Liverpool to Canada. They were pioneers in a program designed to spirit British children from their war-ravaged homes to safer shores. But they had no way of knowing that in the darkness of September 17, a German U-boat would sink their ship, tossing them and the other 316 people on board into a rough, gale-driven sea. How any of them survived is a miracle. Journalist Tom Nagorski’s stirring account, based on interviews with survivors including his own great-uncle, brings their saga to light for the first time.
