Hello Clio,
Thank you so much for your input, you are correct in that the Rohilla was not lost as a result of a mine. The Rohilla was the chosen topic of my third book "Into the Maelstrom: The Wreck of HMHS Rohilla.
I am presently working on a revised copy of the the book which is intended for release to coincide with the centenary of the vessels loss and of course the Great War itself.
My hope was to include a basic schematic of a possible minefield as many people still attribute the loss of the vessel to a mine. I was intrigued to read your thoughts on "the Yorkshire minefield existed only on paper until September 1917"
Thank you for your insight
Colin
