More souls died during the Riverboat Sultana disaster than on the RMS Titanic! The Sultana disaster on the Mississippi River during the U.S. Civil War is in fact, the worst maritime disaster in U.S. history. So why is it such a forgotten piece of Americana, with no historical site or Hollywood film? Everyone remembers the Alamo or Pearl Harbor, so why not the poor Sultana?
