NOTES
"A centennial edition of ... The Titanic: end of a dream."
"On that fatal night in 1912 the world's largest moving object disappeared beneath the waters of the North Atlantic in less than three hours. ... Based on the sensational evidence of the U.S. Senate hearings, eyewitness accounts, and the results of the 1985 Woods Hole expedition that photographed the ship, this ... account vividly re-creates the vessel's last desperate hours afloat and fully addresses the questions that have continued to haunt the tragedy of the Titanic"--P. [4] of cover
