'It would make the stones cry to hear those on board shrieking' -
Daniel Buckley, third-class passenger For the first time, in this
moving new book, Titanic's passengers and crewmen are permitted to
tell the story of that lamentable disaster entirely in their own
words. Included are letters, postcards, diary entries and memoirs
that were written before, during and immediately after the maiden
voyage itself. Many of the pre-sailing documents were composed by
people who later lost their lives in the sinking and represent the
last communications that these people ever had with their friends
and loved ones at home. The subsequent letters and postcards give
an unparalleled description of the events that occurred during the
five days that Titanic was at sea, and the correspondence by
survivors after the tragedy describes the horror of the disaster
itself and the heartbreak they experienced at the loss of those
they loved. This poignant compilation, by Titanic expert George
Behe, also contains brief biographies of the passengers and
crewmen, victims, as well as survivors, who wrote the documents in
question.
