Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ship was almost instantly in flames Some jumped overboard immediately, and all was in indescribable confusion. The masts began to fall one after another, and it is supposed killed great numbers by their descent. Others, it is feared, were roasted alive, but the majority were drowned. (Hull Advertiser and Exchange Gazette, 25 August 1848)The Ocean Monarch was only a few hours out of Liverpool on 24 August 1848 when a cabin passenger shouted Fire! and all hell broke loose. Bound for Boston with almost 400 people on board, the emigrant ship was soon ablaze with little chance of putting the flames out. People watched helplessly from their cottages along the Welsh coast as some ships ignored the travellers plight while others raced to their aid.

Discover what happened to the passengers and crew, including:James K.

This book was released on 2016-01-29 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On Thursday 24th August 1848, (days before his sons first birthday), Joseph sailed from Liverpool at 5am aboard the 1300 ton barque White Diamond Line 'Ocean Monarch' bound for Boston. At around midday as the ship sailed six miles off the Great Orme, the captain was informed that smoke was coming out of one of the ventilators. Upon investigation, smoke was also found coming from the main cabin. Despite efforts to put out the fire, another part burst into flames. Several ships were in the area and rescued many passengers using their own boats but 178 passengers and crew perished. By 3pm, nothing was left of the Ocean Monarch. The cause of the fire was thought to be smoking amongst the passengers or as other reports give, a passenger making a fire in a wooden ventilator on the third deck. Many bodies were washed up along the coast of England and Wales, sadly many were never identified. On the evening of Friday 8 September and Saturday 9 September, five bodies were washed ashore at Formby being three men and two women and were buried on the 12th at St Peters Church, Formby, only one was identified, that being Joseph Bladon. This book tells the story of Joseph, the disaster and his family

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1845 and 1855, 2 million Irish men and women fled their famine-ravaged homeland, many to settle in large British and American cities that were already wrestling with a complex array of urban problems. In this innovative work of comparative urban history, Matthew Gallman looks at how two cities, Philadelphia and Liverpool, met the challenges raised by the influx of immigrants. Gallman examines how citizens and policymakers in Philadelphia and Liverpool dealt with such issues as poverty, disease, poor sanitation, crime, sectarian conflict, and juvenile delinquency. By considering how two cities of comparable population and dimensions responded to similar challenges, he sheds new light on familiar questions about distinctive national characteristics--without resorting to claims of "American exceptionalism." In this critical era of urban development, English and American cities often evolved in analogous ways, Gallman notes. But certain crucial differences--in location, material conditions, governmental structures, and voluntaristic traditions, for example--inspired varying approaches to urban problem solving on either side of the Atlantic.

Book excerpt: A story of tragedy at sea where every desperate act meant life or death The small ship making the Liverpool-to-New York trip in the early months of 1856 carried mail, crates of dry goods, and more than one hundred passengers, mostly Irish emigrants. Suddenly an iceberg tore the ship asunder and five lifeboats were lowered. As four lifeboats drifted into the fog and icy water, never to be heard from again, the last boat wrenched away from the sinking ship with a few blankets, some water and biscuits, and thirteen souls. Only one would survive. This is his story. As they started their nine days adrift more than four hundred miles off Newfoundland, the castaways--an Irish couple and their two boys, an English woman and her daughter, newlyweds from Ireland, and several crewmen, including Thomas W. Nye from Fairhaven, Massachusetts--began fighting over food and water. One by one, though, day by day, they died. Some from exposure, others from madness and panic. In the end, only Nye and the ship's log survived. Using Nye's firsthand descriptions and later newspaper accounts, ship's logs, assorted diaries, and family archives, Brian Murphy chronicles the horrific nine days that thirteen people suffered adrift on the cold gray Atlantic. Adrift brings readers to the edge of human limits, where every frantic decision and desperate act is a potential life saver or life taker.
