                        Watched it as well, better than the "breaking news" story of the freeways shut down at rush hour last night during rush hour for the Presidents arrival.

                        "Dead Wake" was an excellent book, and I highly recommend it for anyone with even a passing interest in WWI and the Lusitania. There were some very interesting insights on Churchill and Jackie Fisher in there that I hadn't seen before.
