Here, historian Nick Barratt provides the definitive narrative of the disaster in the words of those who were involved--including the designers and naval architects at the White Star Line; first-class aristocratic passengers and the families in third class and steerage, many of whom were simply seeking a better life in America; and the boards of inquiry, whose task it was to help change maritime law to ensure that such an event never took place again. Combining tales of incredible folly and unimaginable courage, Barratt has gathered the aspirations of the owners, the efforts of the crew, and of course, the eyewitness accounts from those lucky enough to survive, transporting the reader back to those heartbreaking moments on that fateful Sunday night.--From publisher description. 505 0 $a The background and construction of the Titanic -- Historial background -- Building the Titanic -- The maiden voyage of the Titanic -- On board -- Setting out: April 10-13 -- The final day and the iceberg: April 14-15 -- The aftermath -- The immediate aftermath -- The inquiry -- Life goes on. 610 20 $a Titanic (Steamship) 610 20 $a Titanic (Steamship) $v Sources. 650 0 $a Shipwrecks $z North Atlantic Ocean. 650 0 $a Shipwrecks $z North Atlantic Ocean $v Sources. 941 $a 10 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909022026.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20200528044328.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20200204040807.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20200110023031.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006062140.0 952 $l NBPB943 $d 20180704034620.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20170418075639.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20140812072831.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20100624011600.0 952 $l AXPF626 $d 20100519083926.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=6397EB0656F411DF8650EDE9A7D7520A 994 $a 02 $b JIDInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
