About the book
Rather than simply retelling the familiar story of that fateful night, it delves into the testimonies, evidence, and legal proceedings that sought to establish what went wrong and who was responsible. Drawing on transcripts from both the American and British inquiries, the book reveals the conflicting accounts, cover-ups, and controversies that emerged in the aftermath. From the ship's speed through ice-laden waters to the shortage of lifeboats and the mysterious nearby vessel that failed to respond, each aspect is scrutinised with the rigour of a courtroom drama. The result is a fascinating forensic examination that challenges assumptions and sheds new light on one of history's most infamous maritime disasters.
