Miracles On The Water by Tom Nagorski
In September 1940, 90 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 in the darkness of September 17th, a German U-boat sunk 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, reveals the saga for the first time.
