The General Slocum was a passenger steamboat built in Brooklyn. She operated in the New York City area as an excursion steamer. On June 15, 1904, the General Slocum caught fire and sank in the East River of New York City. At the time of the accident she was on a chartered run carrying members of St. Mark's Evangelical Lutheran Church (German Americans from Little Germany, Manhattan) to a church picnic. An estimated 1,021 of the 1,342 people on board died. The General Slocum disaster was the New York area's worst disaster in terms of loss of life and the worst maritime disaster in the city's history. This fully illustrated book contains many rare pictures and photographs of the accident and the aftermath.

Excerpt from New York's Awful Steamboat Horror: Hundreds of Women and Children Drowned and Burned to Death There was a noise like an explosion down in the steamer's hull, and red starry loads of sparks and smoke and ames ew up, and the greater part of the super structure plunged forward into the ames. How many hundreds of lives were snuffed out at that instant nobody will ever know. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Over 40 pages of startling and heart-rending contemporary pictures Also covered are other fires including that of Chicago's Iroquois Theatre. Expanded reproduction of the rare original volume.
