The Civil War is over but there will be still more American deaths on this day in history. The SS Sultana sinks to the bottom of the Mississippi River and takes the lives of thousands of Union soldiers. Haven't heard of the incident? Would you believe that it was worse than the Titanic? Join me as I re-examine the event, explore its origins and speculate why it has been lost to the pages of history.
