Reviews
"Over a dozen films and hundreds of books have told the tragic tale of Titanic 's sinking, but coming up on the 100 year anniversary of its icy demise, Hines offers this from the headlines account of the events as they unfolded in the week that followed. No tweets, twitters or cell phone messages in 1912, so news traveled slowly. The first accounts reported that Titanic sunk but everyone survived. The truth emerged bit by bit while the world followed. This book puts the reader in the audience to experience those same emotions.
