1.0 out of 5 stars Not one of the better Titanic books, October 9, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Total Titanic (Mass Market Paperback)
I have been a Titanic Historian for over 32 years and found that this book is not even up to par. Most of the book deals with "Titanic myths" that the author believes to be fact. He did not do any research apparently or he would have found out from a variety of sources that he was dealing with just myths. There are a veriety of better books out now dealing with Titanic, and her story. This one is just cashing in on the movie fame, without any substantial content. Your money would be better spent on a Walter Lord book.

1.0 out of 5 stars Poorly researched, December 11, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Total Titanic (Mass Market Paperback)
This is one of the worst books I've seen on the Titanic. Appears as though the author knew very little about his subject, picked up many bits and pieces from browsing the Internet and had no idea what information was right or wrong (some of the information can be directly tracked back to various web-sites). Most of the 'text' is bullet points of information, not a document to be read.

1.0 out of 5 stars It dosen't even deserve 1 star, August 28, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Total Titanic (Mass Market Paperback)
It was 5 bucks that could have gone to a better place, Half baked theories - myths believed to be fact and horrible obvious inaccuracies that are a definite embarresment to this author. If he was expecting praise his expectations were to high. Don't waste your time, it contains some websites and is mainly for teeny boppers who are obsessed with a movie and don't really care whats fact or fiction as long as they know Leonardo DiCaprios' name is in it somewhere
