EDITORS COMMENTS
This page 46 excerpt is taken from the handwritten log of George W. Bowyer, a veteran seafarer aboard the White Star Line's RMS Olympic during its voyage to New York and back in April 1918. Meticulously penned in his memoir, "Lively Ahoy," Bowyer's account offers a firsthand perspective of life at sea during the 1910s. The log entry details the harrowing experience of encountering a German U-boat, U103, and the subsequent sinking of the submarine after a fierce battle. Bowyer's log also poignantly records the tragic sinking of his son's ship, adding a deeply personal touch to the historical record. The page bears the distinctive handwriting of George W. Bowyer, providing an intriguing glimpse into the past. This significant piece of maritime history was later passed down through generations and, in 1943, was presented as a personalized and signed copy to Bowyer's granddaughter, Christine. This rare and evocative log page, with its unique connection to both maritime history and a personal family story, offers a captivating glimpse into the past and the experiences of those who braved the seas during a time of war.
