What others are saying:
"Librarians who have neglected to add to their collection one
of the recent general accounts of the Titanic and her fateful
voyage can rectify the situation with Wels' overview of the liner and
its brief life. In this absolutely stunning book, prepared in
collaboration with the Discovery Channel, are illustrations that Titanic
buffs will not have seen before - many original artworks of unbelievable
quality and sensitivity; they augment an engrossing text, which follows
the Titanic from construction to launching to embarkation on
its one and only crossing to, ultimately, its watery grave. These
pages will keep the reader occupied and preoccupied for hours."
