Publisher's Synopsis
On the 15th April 1912 the largest, most expensive, most luxurious ship ever built sank beneath the icy waves of the northern Atlantic. Over one thousand five hundred people perished that night in what has become one of the most examined tragedies of our time. But never before has the story of the world's most infamous ship, been told in the words of those who designed her, built her and survived her. Here Nick Barratt tells the story of the Titanic from its original conception at the White Star Line through its construction at the Harland and Wolff's shipyards in Belfast.
