### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Excellent Account of the Sinking of the "Unsinkable Ship"
*by E***E on November 16, 2017*

Since man first ventured onto the oceans human history has recorded many ship wrecks with significant loss of life. Argueably the most memorable sea diaster in history, and the one I find most fasinating for reasons I will discuss in this review, is the sinking of RMS Titanic on April 14-15, 1912. As described in the author's narative, after boarding the crew and most passangers, the RMS Titanic, advertised as "the Ship of Dreams" and "Unsinkable", began her maiden voyage on Wednesday April 10, 1912 from Southhampton, England sailing to Queenstown, Ireland, to take on more passengers. The RMS Titanic, the newest addition to the prestigious White Star Line Company, with 2,223 passengers and crew aboard steamed out of Queenstown, on the morning of April11, 1912 travling the long established North Atlantic shipping lane, bound for New York City. Cruising at near top speed, without incident April 11, 12, 13, and 14. The Titanic crew did their jobs diligently, and the passengers of all classes enjoyed the beautiful decor, wonderful food, and the many other amenities available to them. The weather was very pleasant until it became quite cool the morning of April 14. The Titanic received Iceberg Warnings that same morning and took appropriate percautions. At 1140 pm April 14, lookouts reported the an iceberg, and despitei taking prompt and correct action the bridge officer was unable to avoid the collision with an iceberg to the right of her bow which tore through 5 of the 7 water tight sections of the ship. First responders reported that the ship was taking on massive amounts of sea water, with14 feet of water aboard at 1159 pm. The Captain ordered abandon ship shortly there after. Although Titanic carried the number of lifeboats required by law, they could only hold 1000 souls. Further the lack of lifeboat training and drills for crew or passengers resulted in only 705 people surviving the diaster. At 0240 am on April 15, 1912, while the the ships orcastra played on the great ships sank into the frigid North Atlantic waters with more than 1,500 souls still onboard.This book was written and published by Hourly Histories. This publisher offers a collection of hundreds of concise historical accounts designed to provide the reader with well researched and written history texts about important people, places, and events in human history, that can be read one--two hour Their greater purpose is to increase reader interest in history and promote reading of history books.This was a throughly researched skillfully written account. The author addressed the concept, design, construction, and engineering of the Titanic. Because of her extreme size her construction and launching from dry dock represented some interesting challanges. The author also provided a detailed description of the passengers areas, the qualifications and training of the Captain, officers, and crew, as well as a synopses of the passengers, among whom included some rich and famous celeberties of the time. Also he addresed the inveztigation into the diaster and changes in Martine Laws regarding safety and associated design and procedural changes made in the aftermath of the diaster. Finally he delves into why there exists such a lingering fascination with the Titanic that has persisted since she sank to the ocean bottom and continues even after the discovery, filming and salvaging of items from her final resting place. This book suggests and I agree that the death of the Titanic occurred at a time that allows it to symbolize the end of an era of wealthy, gallant gentlemen; faith in technological progress; unbridled greed and displays of oppulance, and a sense of optimism about the future. The sinking of the so called "unsinkable ship" on her maiden voyage shook faith in technologies, as surely as the World War that erupted not two full years later shattered faith as war technologies were employed to slaughter millions of people. What ever the case, the story of the Titanic is an enthralling tale, from its conception, to its demise, to its re-discovery decades later. This was a good read that almost everyone can enjoy!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Short But Concise Read
*by H***H on August 13, 2025*

I enjoyed the straight forward and concise read. As is typical for Hourly History the storyline is booked in a manner for a quick preparing the reader for other more complex reads.
