About this listen

In 1864, the American packet ship Adriatic was on voyage from London to New York when it was captured and burned by the notorious Confederate raider CSS Tennessee. The passengers and crew were taken prisoner, but the ship fell out of memory. In 2016, Captains John Noonan and John Bricker, and their team of divers discovered the old sailing vessel, along with some of its artifacts. John Noonan and John Bricker join me as guests to discuss the Adriatic, how they found, and the research involved to identify it. Written, edited, and produced by Rich Napolitano.
