This book is as interesting to read as any novel. It makes the passengers and crew of the Titanic real people, not just doomed figures from a history book. I particularly found fascinating the photos and passenger lists, as well as copies of dinner menus. With all the attention being focused on the Titanic, due to movies and plays in the works about it, I think anyone who really wants a good, readable account of what acutally happened on April 14, 1912 should read this book

The first time I read this, it was almost as if fate told me to read it. In it, it described a passenger who was a buyer for my Grandfather's Department Store. At that point, I could not leave the book until I had completed it. True, this is very personal, but until you see something that you have only heard passed on by family members, it is very errie. At the time, I was younger, doing research on my family history. Today, I am constantly researching articles on the Titanic because of my love of ships, particularly the Titanic and the family history.. ThomasF. Nugent Wunderlich Drive, Houston, Texas, 77069
