Many reasons have been advanced for the continuing fascination of this epic tragedy, but none, we think, can contribute as much to an understanding of it as the four accounts collected in this volume.\u003cbr\u003eAll four authors were survivors, and each presents the catastrophe from his own viewpoint; the icy waters, the cries of the drowning, the confusion, and the heroism, are given an intensely personal immediacy.\u003cbr\u003eThis volume contains, complete and unabridged, \"The Loss of the S.S. Titanic,\" by Lawrence Beesley, and \"The Truth about the Titanic,\" by Col. Archibald Gracie. Both are full-length books published soon after the disaster. Each has become extremely rare today. The third story in this volume, \"Titanic,\" was written by one of the only officers to survive the catastrophe, Commander Lightoller. It includes the story of the \"white-washing\" inquiries into the \u003ci\u003eTitanic\u003c\/i\u003e's safety measures. The last section is a dramatic tale by the \u003ci\u003eTitanic\u003c\/i\u003e's surviving wireless operator, Harold Bride.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 320\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.74 x 7.98 x 5.39 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 01, 1960\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51756114772256,"sku":"9780486206103","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/910e77c374e878a793e64788c04f2542.webp?v=1780074592","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/story-of-the-titanic-as-told-by-its-survivors-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
