I probably wouldn't have bought this book had it not been a topic that my husband finds of great interest. I read chapters to him many nights in bed and I was at least as hooked as he was. Yes, we know the story of the Titanic thanks to the movie, but this book offers so many insights and new bits and pieces of information, and it's presented in a very readable and interesting way. I love the fact that the chapters were relatively short and quite focused and the various angles explored by the author were very well chosen. My husband, who knew quite a bit about the Titanic, agreed that this book offered a lot of new tidbits that he'd not heard before.The author did a fine job researching and presenting this subject, and I'd recommend this book to anyone with even just a passing interest in this famous tragedy.
