The Titanic was hailed as the largest ocean liner of its time. It boasts the least technology with the most luxurious accommodations for relaxation and dining, The Titanic set sail on its first voyage ion April 10, 1912. To the horror of the world, four days late it was struck by an iceberg of the coast of Canada. It sank with more than a thousand poor souls perishing with it. This book outlines fascinating facts with a no-nonsense approach to the events, people, and personal accounts to one of the worst tragedies of our time.

Reflection

From eyewitness accounts and evidence from the wreckage, Sean Callery has once again done a wonderful job of capturing 50 facts about another history event. His depiction of the arrogance, greed and ambition of all those involved in the tragedy that is the Titanic is very well written in this book. I recommend it for all ages, especially those who love history and want a more detail account of what really happened that fateful day.
