Exploring the Titanic: How the Greatest Ship Ever Lost Was Found

A true story about a great ship that sank in 1912, and about how a man found it, very interesting

This is one of the first books about Titanic I came in contact with and I read it all in one sitting. Rich illustrations, amazing photos, and a simple yet poignant storyline make this book easy to understand and enjoy. Written for childern but great for adults too.

I have used this book for years in my Earth Science class. The students love it and frequently read the entire book the first night. It is an excellant textbook.

I am in love with the great liner that took her first and last voyage over 86 years ago. Titanic's 45,000 ton body was built in Belfast, Ireland, and now rests two miles under the sea! For many, many decades the question was put, over and over again- where exactly is the great liner in the sea?The question (along with many other questions) were answered when Robert D. Ballard discovered the long lost ship. Ballard's book, "Exploring the Titanic" takes you 12,460 feet under water to Titanic herself. "Exploring Titanic" has wonderful pictures, graphics, diagrams and intense information. Even though it is written for about the age of 8, adults might find interest in the book as well. I would have given it a 10, but graphics are not as clear as they could be, and is written quite simply.

Puts you there. This author depicts his details of finding the Titanic and all the fears and reverence that goes with it. The illustrations are what first sold me, even tho most are computer enhanced and even computer generated. I prefer that it be stated when that is so; just for those who don't look that close. Sorta takes a little reality away. BUT well worth the LOW price!!
