Summary:
A chilling, first-person account of the sinking of the Titanic, first published by Houghton Mifflin in 1912, just two months after the tragedy. It represents Beesley's attempt not just to record the events of the sinking but to set the record straight. In so doing, he captures both the majesty and the tragedy of this legendary voyage -- the view from the lifeboat as well as that from the deck.
