Very interesting and comprehensive look on the Titanic. This books covers a lot of topics and a lot of points of view. If you are a Titanic enthusiast that just wants to read one book to understand several aspects of it, I will suggest you pick this one! It's not perfect but I think Michael did a terrific job trying to listen to different sides of the same coin!!

A really interesting book studying the events of the tragic accident with information from the court inquiries afterwards. Good book for anyone interested in the Titanic.
