Titanic

This is the story of RMS Titanic. In this authoritative guide we explore what was the largest passenger steamship in the world when she set sail on her maiden voyage from Southampton in April 1912. Just four days later she struck an iceberg and sank, resulting in the deaths of 1,517 people in one of the worst maritime disasters in history.

Authors, Roger Cartwright and Peter Rushton, consider why the taking of an ocean voyage for the pleasure of the journey itself, and not simply as a means of travelling from A to B, came to be so popular, and what the arrival of the mega-ships means for the new age in cruising, providing the perfect guide to cruising and its history across America.
