by Caitlin Doughty

Doughty announced on March 21, 2024 that she was writing a book on the Titanic, to be published by W. W. Norton. She noted at the time that she had been working on it for 9 months, and that it would likely be a year and a half to two years until the book's release.

"My dear sweet (as yet untitled) book child will have it all. Little-known figures mostly overlooked by historical accounts. Bodies that sank to the depths, bodies that were collected from the surface, bodies that raise dramatic class issues in their treatment. The wrecksite as a graveyard, and yes, the Titan submersible."

Can't wait to read this one! I've followed Caitlin's channel for years and her coverage of shipwrecks is always incredibly interesting and respectful.
