The Ship of Dreams: The Sinking of the Titanic and the End of the Edwardian Era by Gareth Russell
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 47 MB
Overview: A riveting account of the Titanic disaster and the unraveling of the gilded Edwardian society that had created it.
In April 1912, six notable people were among those privileged to experience the height of luxury—first class passage on “the ship of dreams,” the RMS Titanic: Lucy Leslie, Countess of Rothes; son of the British Empire, Tommy Andrews; American captain of industry John Thayer and his son Jack; Jewish-American immigrant Ida Straus; and American model and movie star Dorothy Gibson. Within a week of setting sail, they were all caught up in the horrifying disaster of the Titanic’s sinking, one of the biggest news stories of the century. Today, we can see their stories and the Titanic’s voyage as the beginning of the end of the established hierarchy of the Edwardian era.
