"NOT EVEN GOD HIMSELF COULD SINK THIS SHIP? On the evening of Sunday, April 14, 1912, the awesome ocean liner Titanic-the majestic queen of the White Star fleet-struck an iceberg and quickly vanished into the frigid blackness of the North Atlantic.

In Her Name, Titantic, Dr. Charles Pellegrino combines two enthralling adventures in one: re-creating with breathtaking immediacy the terrible night the great ship went down...and offering a riveting, first-hand account of a remarkable expedition-and the miraculous scientific technology-that helped shed astonishing new light on the greatest seagoing disaster of the 20th century.… (more)

Pellegrino is a very good author, although he does tend to involve himself in the story more than I'm comfortable with. Even so, I would recommend this to anyone interested in the Titanic, Bob Ballard, or both. ( )

Her Name, Titanic, is a brilliant story that fans of the Titanic will fall in love with instantly. The story follows Bob Ballard and his crew as they try to find the Titanic. The whole book accounts his true story as he tries to find the ship. The book is just brilliant and even contains real pictures taken during the year the Titanic sunk. ( )
