On 10 April 1912, RMS Titanic set sail from Southampton on her maiden voyage to New York. This Ship of Dreams was the largest and most luxurious ocean liner in the world. It was claimed she was unsinkable. But four days later, when the ship struck an iceberg, the loss of Titanic and over 1,500 passengers would become one of the most infamous maritime disasters in history. In this fact-filled retelling of its construction and doomed maiden voyage, David Long brings Titanics tragic tale to life.
