For a century the story of the ship that never completed its maiden voyage has fascinated the public, featuring in numerous hit films such as A Night To Remember , Raise The Titanic and, of course, James Cameron s box office smash Titanic . Now, join one lucky member of the public as they get the chance to see with their own eyes the actual remains of the ship. As competition winner Rob Goldsmith travels to the wreck site, south of Newfoundland in the North Atlantic Ocean, we learn about the ship itself and that fateful night in April 1912 when the unthinkable occurred and the unsinkable ship went down, with a death toll of over 1,500 men, women and children. The sheer excitement at witnessing a sight that few people have ever seen (it is thought that more people have gone into space than have seen the Titanic) is in contrast to the scale of the tragedy that took place there, resulting in a uniquely moving and fascinating film for all fans of history in general and the Titanic in particular.

The Sinking of the Titanic
When she set sail from Southampton on her maiden voyage to New York on April 10, 1912, RMS Titanic, the pride of the White Star fleet, was the largest ocean liner in the world. Deemed "practically unsinkable" because of her double-bottomed hull and watertight compartments, she carried more than 2,000 passengers and crew, although only sufficient lifeboats for just over half that number. Four days out of Southampton, on the night of April 14, she struck an iceberg in the North Atlantic and sank within a matter of hours; 1,503 lives were lost. Logan Marshall interviewed the survivors in the immediate aftermath of the disaster and in this book he records the facts as they were known, together with numerous maps, diagrams, drawings, and photographs (including a picture of the actual iceberg that sank the Titanic). Well established as part of the canon of Titanic literature, this book is a must-have for anyone with an interest in the ship and her sorrowful fate.

More than 80 years after her renowned maiden voyage, stories of the Titanic continue to intrigue us. Now this elegant gift book offers an intimate and unique look at the motivations, feelings, and personal stories of the people involved with the unsinkable shipz Based on the wildly popular expedition of the same name at the Mariners' Museum, Titanic: Fortune and Fate displays more than 200 photographs of authentic artifacts and portraits that illuminate such astounding personal narratives as: -- "A Star is Born": Actress Dorothy Gibson is sailing home to her lover, a married man and movie backer. She makes it into a lifeboat and goes on to star in the first Titanic movie.-- "Whither Thou Goest": Macy's founder Isidor Straus and his wife Ida are known for their devotion to one another. Urged into a lifeboat, Ida takes Isidor's hand and says, "Where you go, I go".-- "Self-Fulfilling Prophecy": Steward Angus Davis was upset with his lowly station and wrote before the vessel sailed that he "hoped the ship would go down to the bottom of the ocean". He did not survive.Building on these remarkable tales, some tragic, some heroic, Titanic: Fortune and Fate centers around images, quotations, and text that relate to a concept or emotion -- e.g. pride (in the vessel and her technological supremacy). The result is a stunning emotional range that has yet to be captured in print.
