On December 6, 1917, two tramp steamers, the Mont-Blanc and the Imo, collided in wartime Halifax Harbour, creating what became the largest man-made explosion of its time. More than 2, 000 people died, 9, 000 were injured, 6, 000 people were left homeless and an additional 19, 000 were left without adequate shelter. In a combination of words and images (many never seen before), John Boileau delivers a breathtaking account of the magnitude of this event. | 6/12/17 by John Boileau, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
