Yes, I knew the story of the Titanic; massive ‘unsinkable’ ship sinks after hitting an iceberg. I also knew that in James Cameron’s film Leonardo DiCaprio proclaimed, “I’m King of the world”! Yet the ship still sinks. But this book tells the fascinating true story of The Titanic and of two other ships; The Californian and The Carpathia, and the heroism and cowardice of their Captains in attempting to rescue Titanic survivors. It was an enlightening read, of a familiar story but with a revelation of events and details that had a giant impact on that time and on ours.
