This talk will cover the financing and construction of this liner, progressing to her use  in the First World War as a high speed  courier vessel bringing warlike stores  to the UK from the USA, ending with her last voyage  including some of these  carried on her who were engaged in war work and whether or not passengers on that fateful last voyage were being used as human shields.
