About This Book

A dramatized reconstruction recounts the ocean liner’s voyage, the night it struck an iceberg, the ensuing confusion and breakdown of order aboard, and the lives of those who took to lifeboats. Drawn from survivor testimony and contemporary reports, the narrative traces rescue efforts, the suffering and consolations of survivors, and broader reflections on human conduct in catastrophe, and closes with specific accounts of survivors from Finland and the ripple effects on families and communities.
