Here is our latest Third Age Expeditions column for Luxe Beat Media. This story, Unknown Titanic of the Pacific, recounts Alaska’s worst maritime disaster which occurred 100 years ago on October 24, 1918 when Canadian Pacific Railway’s steel-built coastal steamer, SS Princess Sophia, ran aground at dawn on Vanderbilt Reef during stormy seas and a blinding winter blizzard. When SS Princess Sophia slipped beneath the frigid waves on October 25th, she took all 366 souls onboard with her. https://lnkd.in/gdw2_kE
