Sultana : surviving civil war, prison, and the worst maritime disaster in American history / Alan Huffman. by Huffman, Alan. Smithsonian Books : Collins, c2009. Call #: 973.771 H889s Subjects Tolbert, Romulus, -1920.   Maddox, John Christian, -1925.   Elliott, J. Walter, -1895.   Sultana (Steamboat)   Steamboat disasters -- Mississippi River -- History -- 19th century.   Soldiers -- Indiana -- Biography.   Prisoners of war -- Alabama -- Biography.   United States -- History -- Civil War, 1861-1865 -- Prisoners and prisons. ISBN:  9780061470547 0061470546 Edition:  1st ed. Description:  xiv, 300 p. ; 24 cm. Bibliography:  Includes bibliographical references (p. [285]-287) and index. Summary:  "The sinking of the Sultana remains the worst maritime disaster in American history, yet due to a confluence of contemporary events (Lincoln had recently been assassinated and the war had ended), it soon faded into relative obscurity. Now Alan Huffman presents this harrowing story against the backdrop of the endless suffering already endured by its survivors. Using contemporary research as well as digging deep into archives and family keepsakes, Huffman paints a gripping portrait of the young men who made it home alive."--From publisher.
