In this dramatic real-life tale Lawrence Beesley tells first-hand what
it was like to be on the Titanic as it plunged into the icy waters of
the North Atlantic on that fateful night in April 1912. Beesley wrote
this book and it was published just nine weeks after the disaster. Could
the Titanic sinking have been averted? Was there a fundamental design
flaw? Did Titanic break in two as it sank? Why did so many people die in
the disaster? Its a story of what went wrong, of human endeavour and
what lessons were learned. First published 1912 and now republished in
2010 by InfoTech Communications, UK.
