Titanic: The Inside Story of the Unsinkable Ship (Very Short

Titanic: The Inside Story of the Unsinkable Ship (Very Short History Book 18)

When The Titanic sank on its maiden voyage, the loss of the so-called unsinkable ship caused shock and outrage on both sides of the Atlantic. The ship was supposed to symbolize the progress of the age, a triumph of man over nature, and a way to cross the Atlantic in luxury and comfort, and faster than any other vessel in existence. Instead, it sank only a few days into its maiden voyage, with the number of casualties inflated by avoidable mistakes - the number of life boats on the vessel were woefully inadequate for the number of people on board, while numerous mistakes were made by the wireless operators. 'Titanic: The Inside Story of the Unsinkable Ship' reveals the details of the ship's voyage and her passengers, explaining the failures that led to the sinking and the impact on the lives of both the survivors and the relatives of the victims.

The Very Short History series gives the reader a clear, concise, and very short, account of the people and events that have shaped world history. Each book provides an entertaining and engaging narrative, allowing the reader to master the subject in the shortest time possible.
