The Wreck of the Conemaugh is a historical book written by Thornton Jenkins Hains, originally published in 1899.

The ship was caught in a violent storm off the coast of Florida and was wrecked, resulting in the loss of many lives. The book provides a detailed account of the events leading up to the disaster, as well as the aftermath and the efforts to rescue survivors.
