I think this has to be my new favourite Titanic book. to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic this book makes you feel as though you were living during that time period and you'll be in the same kind of disbelief that people around the world were that fateful night 100 years ago. Denenberg has created a unique way to tells his story, he has created a fictional magazine that then relays all the people and events leading up to April 14, 1912.
Summary from the book jacket:
Filled with photographs, details and firsthand accounts, Tintanic Sinks! is a meticulously researched account that uses fact and fiction to tell the dramatic tale of the building, launching and sinking of the legendary ship. It explores the people behind the Titanic's creation, imagines what it might have been like to be a passengers on the doomed crossing, and shares how some survivors coped in the aftermath. This is the ultimat "you are there" experience - welcome aboard!
