  • "Eleven storeys high, a sixth of a mile long and a list of passengers collectively worth 250 million dollars. On 10th April 1912 the 'unsinkable' Titanic left Southhampton on her maiden voyage to New York. At 11.40 pm on the 14th April, the Titanic collided with an iceberg and was lost. 1500 people died in the freezing sea. Legends and stories grew and even now the whole affair still generates a chill on the spine... First published in 1956 and born of twenty years' research, this account of the voyage - and its aftermath - is a classic of detailed investigation."

Yet on a moonlit night in 1912, the "unsinkable" Titanic raced across the glassy Atlantic on her maiden voyage, with only twenty lifeboats for 2,207 passengers..."

Yet on a moonlit night in 1912, the "unsinkable" Titanic raced across the glassy Atlantic on her maiden voyage, with only twenty lifeboats for 2,207 passengers. [This] is the gut-wrenching, minute-by-minute account of her fatal collision with an iceberg and how the resulting tragedy brought out the best and worst in human nature. Some gave their lives for others, some fought like animals for survival. Wives beseeched husbands to join them in the boats; gentlemen went taut-lipped to their deaths in full evening dress; hundreds of steerage passengers, trapped below decks, sought help in vain. -Back cover."
