The Sinking of the Titanic
In the chilly night of April 15, 1912, the luxury passenger liner Titanic slipped quietly beneath the waves of the North Atlantic Ocean. How could this engineering marvel, renowned for its safe and ultramodern design, have been fatally damaged by the light touch of a passing iceberg? This fascinating volume describes the Titanic disaster in the words of eyewitnesses, and through the articles of contemporary historians and engineers.
