I've been an avid lover of the Titanic since I was a teenager; I can't explain exactly why but it's always fascinated me so when I came across this book I had to have it and I can't say I'm disappointed in my purchase; the only complaint I can  have is that it wasn't long enough. I could have read more and more and never gotten bored with the details.  I'm not one for getting overly emotional when reading but for an inexplicable reason anything to do with the Titanic ignites a deep sadness in me when I read or hear of first-hand accounts like in this book; there were several places where I had to literally fight back the sorrow and the tears welling up as I could see these events happening as clear as day due to the many small details provided in the accounts.I can tell you that I've read many many books on the Titanic, watched practically every historical show done on the topic and there were still many people that I read about for the first time in this very book; if you are a fan of the history of the Titanic and it's tragic fate I strongly encourage you to get this book; it'll be worth the time it takes to read it.
