Description
"How many stars were found on the American flag flying from Titanic's mast? How many dogs were on board? Why was Titanic's helmsman prevented from seeing the approaching iceberg? The answers to these questions, and many more, are in this book which is based on research from three continents using original and archival sources, It comprises snapshots of more than 250 dates, from the births of the key players in this tragedy to the latest expedition to recover artefacts; a chronology of the show more ships's final hours, with exact times assigned to each event based on current scientific examination of the wreck; an account of how the public learned the news of the sinking, and also of the court hearings to establish ownership rights to the wreck."--Publisher description. show lessTags
