  • 2 Want to read

The "unsinkable subject", the story of the RMS Titanic, which sank on its maiden voyage, has become one of the world's most iconic parables. Author Hugh Brewster has written extensively on the subject, but in this book he draws on new research and weaves a dramatic story of the crossing, with compelling portraits of the people on board - those who survived and those who tragically lost their lives - allowing us to place ourselves on that sloping deck and as, "What would we do?". A timely publication - the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic is upcoming in April 2012.
