History

Explore the captivating history of the Titanic.

When thinking about the worst known maritime disaster in history, it is impossible not to think about all of the lives lost in a single night. One of the wealthiest men alive (and the wealthiest passenger aboard the ship) died in the same accident that took the life of a baby younger than five months old in steerage.

More than 100 years after the disaster, the survivors have passed on, but they left behind harrowing stories that remind us that every day is something to appreciate. These stories include love, loss, hope, failure, and everything in between. It is the tales told by those who survived that convey the feelings of that fateful night and the reality of the lives lost.

In Titanic: A Captivating Guide to the History of the Unsinkable Ship RMS Titanic, Including Survivor Stories and a Real Romance Story, you will discover topics such as:

A predictable, preventable disasterFrom beginning of construction to the final launch into historyBasic mistakes at a high priceA jolt followed by the worst-case scenarioA more human experienceDorothy Gibson - reliving the experienceRamon Artagaveytia - well-founded fearTwo gentlemen meet their fateAnn Elizabeth Isham - for a best friendLove beyond dutyThe second-class passengersViolet Constant Jessop - survival of all three sistersThe seeds of loveSlander long after the eventsFrom the wreckageAnd much, much more!
