An early "instant" book, published soon after the sinking of the Titanic, this illustrated volume abounds in facts about the ship, voyage, and passengers as well as details of the wreck and firsthand accounts by survivors. Its gripping tales include episodes of heroism and cowardice, dramatic rescues, and searches for the disaster's causes and culprits.
Marshall Everett (1863-1939) excelled at producing timely chronicles of recent misfortunes. His books include The Complete Life of William McKinley and the Story of His Assassination, The Great Chicago Theater Disaster, and The Complete Story of the San Francisco Earthquake.
