Beschreibung
When Titanic sank on a cold night in 1912, barely 700 people escaped with their lives. Among them were six Chinese men. Arriving in New York, these six were met with suspicion and slander. Less than twenty-four hours later, they departed the country, and vanished. When historian Steven Schwankert first stumbled across the fact that eight Chinese nationals were on board, of whom all but two survived, he couldn't believe that there could still be untold personal histories from Titanic. This is their story, the result of meticulous research, dogged investigation, and interviews with family members, an epic journey of research crossing continents, with an international team of investigators. This detailed book expands on numerous new discoveries along the way, revealing the stories of these six forgotten survivors. Their names were Ah Lam, Chang Chip, Cheong Foo, Fang Lang (or Fong Wing Sun), Lee Bing, and Ling Hee.
