Reviews

Historian Gene Eric Salecker, in his epic book, The Destruction of the Steamboat Sultana, brings to life the tragic story of the repatriated Union soldiers and crew of the ill-fated steamboat Sultana. Mr. Salecker accomplishes this through his exhaustive research of never before published letters, journals, and newspaper interviews of the survivors. The author's keen eye for detail and artistic prose allows the reader to feel as if they are witnessing first hand our Nation's worst maritime disaster. The Destruction of the Steamboat Sultana is destined to become an instant classic in the annals of maritime literature. --Cdr. Dennis J. Ringle, USN (Ret.), author of Life in Mr. Lincoln's Navy
