Story
Although we think we know the story of the Titanic - the famously unsinkable ship that hit an iceberg on its maiden voyage from Britain to America in April 1912 - little has been written about what happened to the survivors after the tragedy. How did the loss of the ship shape the lives of the people who survived? How did those who were saved feel about those who perished? And how did they remember that terrible night?

Story
A few minutes before midnight on April 14, 1912, the "unsinkable" RMS Titanic, on her maiden voyage to New York, struck an iceberg. Less than three hours later she lay at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean. While the world has remained fascinated by the tragedy, the most amazing drama of those fateful hours was not played out aboard the doomed liner. It took place on the decks of two other ships, one 58 miles distant from the sinking Titanic, the other barely 10 miles away.

Story
On July 30, 1945, the USS Indianapolis was torpedoed in the South Pacific by a Japanese submarine. An estimated 300 men were killed upon impact; close to 900 sailors were cast into the Pacific Ocean, where they remained undetected by the navy for nearly four days and nights. Battered by a savage sea, they struggled to stay alive, fighting off sharks, hypothermia, and dementia. By the time rescue arrived, all but 317 men had died. The captain's subsequent court-martial left many questions unanswered

Discovered in the attic in which she spent the last years of her life, Anne Frank’s remarkable diary has since become a world classic - a powerful reminder of the horrors of war and an eloquent testament to the human spirit. In 1942, with Nazis occupying Holland, a 13-year-old Jewish girl and her family fled their home in Amsterdam and went into hiding. For the next two years, until their whereabouts were betrayed to the Gestapo, they and another family lived cloistered in the “Secret Annex” of an old office building.

April 15, 2012, marked 100 years since the Titanic sank. Since that fateful night, stories about the sinking have become legendary - how the band played to the end, how lifeboats were lowered half-empty - but amongst the films, novels and academic arguments, only those who were there can separate truth from fiction. After the sinking, inquiries into the loss of 1,517 lives (out of 2,223 aboard) were held in both the UK and US. The proceedings produced 1,000 pages of transcripts.

On May 1, 1915, a luxury ocean liner as richly appointed as an English country house sailed out of New York, bound for Liverpool, carrying a record number of children and infants. The passengers were anxious. Germany had declared the seas around Britain to be a war zone, and for months, its U-boats had brought terror to the North Atlantic.

Very good and interesting
This book is very interesting: it’s the voices of those who were on the Titanic. It’s sad, eerie, and very interesting. This book is worth every single penny. In fact I would have gladly paid more for it.

Good information and narrative
The book by itself is very good, has the basics covered and the information you can extract is very good. The narrator does a good job, but I wish they could have added background noises. I enjoyed the book, I would recommend for any lover of titanic.

Phenomenal
The way the book is organized was phenomenal! Hearing the survivors POV, with what happened after Titanic sank, was heart wrenching! We’ve always been told of the sinking, but not when they are in the water or lifeboats! The narrator was amazing! It was interesting to hear how each survivor handled it differently with the second chance at life they were given! It was disappointing to read online that Jack Thayer, killed himself later in life after the loss of one of 6 kids and his mother. I’d have thought he’d have been truly grateful for life after the tragedy of Titanic!
The different voices with the accents in this audiobook made it truly come alive! Will be listening to it again!

futility.
why was the titanic travelling at high speed & why did the captain did what the Californian did, stop engines & drop anchor untill day before proceeding on her way. as for the lifeboats, why did Ismay cancelled out the 40 Lifeboats for just 20 ?
