Looks at the sinking of the Titanic, offering newspaper reports found in the "Daily Telegraph," from April 16, 1912 through April 22, 1912. - Book News
Over a dozen films and hundreds of books have told the tragic tale of Titanic's sinking, but coming up on the 100 year anniversary of its icy demise, Hines offers this from the headlines account of the events as they unfolded in the week that followed. No tweets, twitters or cell phone messages in 1912, so news traveled slowly. The first accounts reported that Titanic sunk but everyone survived. The truth emerged bit by bit while the world followed. This book puts the reader in the audience to experience those same emotions.

News of the Titanic's catastrophic sinking, days after her maiden voyage, shocked the world. The public was frantic for information and answers, and the London Daily Telegraph, the largest circulating newspaper in the world at the time, was charged with the task of relaying what exactly had happened to the luxury liner. But with false reports abounding and no access to survivors, that task was easier said than done.
