'Impeccably researched and brilliantly argued' Beryl Bainbridge, EVENING STANDARD
Ten years after the first exploration of the Titanic wreck two and a half miles under the north Atlantic, and eighty-four years after she sank, Robin Gardiner and Dan van der Vat present their reappraisal of a legendary maritime disaster...
Why did Captain Smith, with his long record of earlier mishaps, accelerate when he knew unseasonably heavy and southerly ice lay across his cource? And why did his officer of the watch ignore three ice warnings from the crow's nest?
How did the man who cautiously stopped for the night when he met the ice, become spacegoat for the disaster without charge or trial?
When did the official inquiries - American and British - go wrong?
