About This Item
MP3 Audio CD. The Sinking of the Titanic and Great Sea Disaters, by Logan Marshall, provides a very detailed account of what led to the sinking of the Titanic and it also comes with accounts of other major disasters at sea.Written in the year when the Titanic sank and published in 1912, only two years after the tragedy, when the author could have access not only to the documents about the disasters, but he could also interview disaster's survivors, the accounts provide not only interpretations of the documents available, but also first-hand accounts from the survivors. The author had access to the maps, diagrams, even photos linked to the tragedy, and therefore his account of the tragedy is not only detailed, but also backed up with an extensive amount of data and therefore very accurate as well.The Titanic, as probably most readers know before they even touch this book, was the world?s largest and most luxurious ship at the time it was launched in 1912. The huge passenger liner carrying 2,300 people on board set off on its first journey from Southampton to New York on 10th of April 1912, but only 4 days after she left the port, early in the morning of 15th of April 1912 she collided with an iceberg and sank, causing the death of almost 1,500 people ? there were only 705 survivors of the tragedy.The causes that led to the tragedy included human error, greed as well as negligence and Logan Marshall?s great, almost novel-like narrative enriched with stone-hard facts reveals both the human and the technical side of the disaster. It also sets off to dispel numerous myths that developed around the ship and its catastrophe and does an excellent job providing an account of how the survivors processed the event from an emotional point of view.
