The Loss of the S. S. Titanic: Its Story and Its Lessons - Lawrence Beesley - Bog

Eye-opening insights into one of the worst tragedies in history. It's incredible to me how clueless the passengers were even as they loaded into lifeboats. The myth of the ship's invincibility was so strong, it took hearing the screams of people dying in the water for many to realize something had gone seriously wrong.For as many books that have been written about the Titanic, nothing can come close to a first-hand account written months after the incident. Read this for a true historical context. (Benjamin Sobieck)
