Published in 1912 within months of the sinking of the Titanic, this "memorial edition" of first-hand accounts by survivors, people in rescue boats, and other on-the-scene witnesses, offers heart-wrenching testimony about the great disaster, steeped in the sentiments of the day.
Surviving passengers recount heart-breaking tales of parting with loved ones, watching the great ship sink while the steadfast band played "Nearer, My God, to Thee,"...

Fascinating Reproduction!

Great glimpse into the attitudes of the time...even the typeface, factual errors and misspellings add to the dramatic documentation of the stunned and outraged reactions to the sinking of the great RMS TITANIC. Will be especially enjoyed by TITANIC scholars and enthusiastis who now know the "real" story of her sinking...these personal, tragic tales will greatly enhances anyone's technical knowledge and interest in that Night to Remember!

Sinking of the Titanic

I recently acquired a copy of the original book. Can you tell me how much that might be worth please? It is a wonderful book. The cover is not in mint condition! Thank you!

Dover does it again!

I'm glad that Dover publishes these replica editions, because it would be nearly impossible to find this material elsewhere. These accounts, straight from the survivors, are important to those of us that study the Titanic, and should be shared with the public at large.

a survivor was a personal friend of mine

I know personally the facts written in this book are absolute and correct as one survivor was frank goldsmith Jr with his mother Emily. Frank was 9 years old living untill 1979. As frank attested in 1972 while telling my wife and myself the entire story said then that the ship broke in to. the proof was robert ballard's discovery. events in this book frank told me years ago had happened. he said the screams of dying is the same sound you hear in basebsll parks when a home run is hit. I highly recommend this book to all at any price.

a personal friend of a titanic survivor

please add to my former review--_frank goldsmith was in the same life boat with J. Bruce Ismay.
