Halloo - I just see now that the Princess Sophia is scheduled for next Tuesday (24th) at 1:00 PM as one of the "Mysteries of the Deep" on NGC.

BTW, if you are as voracious reader as I am, have you ever used Edward Hamilton, Bookseller? (easy to find on Google). I ask, because I first read of the Sophia in a book called, "Great Shipwrecks of the Pacific Coast" which I ordered from there. Hamilton sells remainders, generally for about $4.50, but the great thing is that they are always hardcovers in mint condition with pristine dust jackets and even the distinct smell of a new book (which for some reason is important to me). You can order all the books you want for a total shipping charge of $3.00 and their service is excellent. Every month I receive their huge catalog of new titles, pore over it for hours, and always come up with several new books I never heard of but will love. Most best-sellers end up there eventually.

Their web site is easy to search by category. "History" and its many sub-categories are my favority hunting grounds.
