Titanic: Triumph & Tragedy : A Chronicle in Words and Pictures

By (author) Haas, Charles A.; By (author) Eaton, John P.

In her brief life the Titanic, at the time of her launch the world's largest man-made moving object, inspired huge excitement and speculation. Today, 100 years since she sank with the loss of more than 1,500 lives, public interest continues undimmed. This substantial book, long regarded as the definitive book on the subject, has been fully updated in a centenary edition that chronicles the latest chapters in this compelling story, including dives to the wreck, dramatic courtroom conflicts, details proved and disproved, and more than 100 evocative new photographs.
