"Though
gone from view, she remains fixed on the horizon of our imagination,
where she steams endlessly, haunting us."
It was a perfect ship. An ocean liner like no other. "A ship
even God himself could not sink." A floating city. The finest
in luxurious transatlantic travel.
Its
2,228 passengers and crew represented rich celebrating their great
wealth, and poor immigrants from many countries of the world,
in search of a better life in America.
What
happened to this perfect ship that nothing could sink? It sank.
What
happened to the 2,228 lives aboard? Most of them died.
This
is the story of the Titanic disaster,
a factual, illustrated story, that will make you want to know
more.
