Surviving Titanic: Firsthand Stories

This anthology compiles first hand accounts of the Titanic disaster by those who lived it. Through their words, we are able to remember the human tragedy and see both the heroism and cowardice on display that fateful night. The accounts presented here come from letters written aboard the Carpathia, correspondences to friends, verbal testimony given at the US Senate Inquiry in 1912, and exclusive interviews given to journalists shortly after the sinking. In total, 26 rare survivor accounts are presented in this anthology, including key crew members as well as First Class, Second Class, and Third Class passengers. First hand stories come from the following individuals: HAROLD BRIDE, LAURA FRANCATELLI, WASHINGTON DODGE, EMILY RYERSON, DAISY MINAHAN, BRUCE ISMAY, GEORGE HARDER, JOHN HARDY, ARCHIBALD GRACIE, MAHALA DOUGLAS, MARY ELOISE SMITH, CATHERINE CROSBY, NORMAN C. CHAMBERS, WILLIAM BURKE, DANIEL BUCKLEY, HELEN BISHOP, OLAUS ABELSETH, LAWRENCE BEESLEY, JACK THAYER, JAMES MCGOUGH, ROBERT HITCHENS, A.H. WEIKMAN, CARPATHIA STEWARD (UNNAMED), CARLOS F.
