NEW TITANIC BOOKS

Following the basic layout of the 1912 Wreck Commission report, this modern-day report provides fascinating insights into the ship itself, the American and British inquiries, the passengers and crew, the fateful journey and ice warnings received, the damage and sinking, protocol and process of rescue, the circumstances in connection with the SS Californian and SS Mount Temple, and the aftermath and ramifications that followed the disaster.

This new book relates the compelling stories of the Ohioans on board the Titanic. Among them were new brides who left their husbands on the sinking ship, immigrants whose plans for a new life were torn apart and prominent business people returning from sojourns abroad. Ohio Tales of the Titanic also follows the survivors’ lives after the disaster, as some were stalked by other tragedies, and points out some fascinating modern connections to the most famous ship of all time.

One hundred years after the sinking of the Titanic, the history of that ship is commemorated in this all new and incredibly comprehensive volume. Co-authored by Tad Fitch, J. Kent Layton and Bill Wormstedt - three researchers with nearly a century's worth of aggregate experience researching the subject - this book will reveal the history of the Titanic as you have never read it before.

Finally, a book that breaks through 100 years of myths surrounding the sinking of RMS Titanic to reveal that the ship was deliberately turned toward the iceberg, the damage was not necessarily fatal, and human error in a boiler room ultimately sank the ship. These are the startling conclusions of Captain David G. Brown, a licensed master mariner. Using a school bus analogy, he explains why historians have been blinded to the true nature of the accident and its consequences.
