β¦ Synopsis
In this dramatic real-life tale Lawrence Beesley tells first-hand what it was like to be on the Titanic as it plunged into the icy waters of the North Atlantic on that fateful night in April 1912. Beesley wrote this book and it was published just nine weeks after the disaster. Could the Titanic sinking have been averted? Was there a fundamental design flaw? Did Titanic break in two as it sank? Why did so many people die in the disaster? Its a story of what went wrong, of human endeavour and what lessons were learned. First published 1912 and now republished in 2010 by InfoTech Communications, UK.
