À propos de cet audio
One hundred years ago, the mightiest "unsinkable" ship began her maiden voyage to cross the Atlantic. An engineering feat 11 stories high, the Titanic contained a list of passengers collectively worth $250 million when she left port on April 10, 1912, but she would never reach her destination. The Titanic collided with an iceberg on the night of April 14, and 1,500 people died in the freezing waters as the ship met her watery grave. Spectacular in many ways, it's a story that has spurred legends and still sends shivers down the spine a century later. This minute-by-minute account of the sinking is based on over 20 years of research and offers amazing detail of that fateful night.
Read by Martin Jarvis, it's a riveting account of one of the world's biggest maritime disasters and the behavior of the passengers and crew. Some sacrificed their lives, while others fought like animals for their own survival. Wives beseeched husbands to join them in lifeboats; gentlemen went taut-lipped to their deaths in full evening dress; and hundreds of steerage passengers, trapped below decks, sought help in vain. From the initial distress flares to the struggles of those left adrift for hours in freezing waters, this audiobook brings that moonlit night in 1912 to life for a new generation of listeners.

Histoire
People often believe that the years immediately prior to AD 1000 were, with just a few exceptions, lacking in any major cultural developments or geopolitical encounters, that the Europeans hadn’t yet reached North America, and that the farthest feat of sea travel was the Vikings’ invasion of Britain. But how, then, to explain the presence of blond-haired people in Maya temple murals at Chichén Itzá, Mexico? Could it be possible that the Vikings had found their way to the Americas during the height of the Maya empire?

A great book

This book differs greatly from any other I've listened to or read on the subject as it presents from a human standpoint instead of the scientific and technical. Me personally I don't care about how the ship was built and why it sank, I care about the lives, the stories, the human beings who were affected.
The social aspects are interesting and I find it quite comical that the author spent quite a bit of time discussing what people were wearing when the accident happened. These are the things that were told to interviewers right after the disaster. There was very little knowledge and understanding of PTSD and traumatic effect and it's interesting to see these very things come into play even though they didn't know it at the time.
I guarantee you will love this story if you are anything like me and are a Titantic aficionado!
The first book ever written on the disaster!
