This book has excellent primary and secondary sources about what happened as the Titanic sank, so why don’t I give it five stars? Well, this is an example of a primary selling point, also being a primary problem. The author also provides a detailed account of what happened to each person before and after the Titanic sank. Each corresponding tale tells about how the person in question survived the sinking. You see, it has many different perspectives of the sinking, with every different view shown based on the rough estimate of when each boat was launched. Was it as good as I imagined in terms of providing a first hand account of the sinking? Yes, and that is part of the problem. ![]() ![]() So when I found this at my local bookstore, I could not resist and decided to pick it up. I have also watched many documentaries and seen museum exhibits on the topic. ![]() My interest in the Titanic goes far beyond the film interpretation of the sinking. This book was one that I was looking forward to reading. ![]()
