Since 1912 rumors of a conspiracy to switch the two in an elaborate insurance scam has always loomed behind the tragic story of the \u003ci\u003eTitanic\u003c\/i\u003e. Could the White Star Line have really switched the \u003ci\u003eOlympic\u003c\/i\u003e with her near identical sister in a ruse to intentionally sink their mortally damaged flagship in April 1912 and cash in on the insurance policy? This book addresses some of these conspiracy theories and illustrates both the questionable anomalies and hard technical facts that will prove the switch theory to be exactly what it is--a mere legend.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSteve Hall\u003c\/b\u003e and \u003cb\u003eBruce Beveridge\u003c\/b\u003e set up the Titanic Research \u0026amp; Modeling Association and are the coauthors of \u003ci\u003eTitanic: The Ship Magnificent\u003c\/i\u003e.
