An index to posts about the ship 'Loch Ard'


"Flotsam", from Gillian Lodge's 'Loch Ard' series.  Thanks Gillian for permission to use this lovely artwork on the blog.  Readers can check out her work at http://gillianlodge.com/index.html 


When I first sought to blog about the Loch Ard I thought I would be finished after three posts. I set myself a challenge to have it done in three months.  But the story has hooked me, so I am making no commitment about the final number of posts, or if I will even deem the collection finished.

However I am reorganising the blog, updating some bits, and breaking longer posts into multiple shorter ones.  Given that I can get sidetracked onto other historical matters I have decided to index the Loch Ard posts, this will allow my readers to follow this story more clearly than scrolling through the blog.

You can get a sense of some the material in the 'drafts' section of my blog by observing the not yet published material.  But as with most research you start a journey to one place and find other noteworthy stops and detours along the way.  Undoubtedly some of these discoveries will result in redaction or revision of the posts below, or perhaps new posts altogether.
