• Collects together unabridged, all the major substantial firsthand accounts of the sinking of the Titanic. • Many accounts have never appeared in print before.• First book to include substantial accounts by female survivors, most of the previously well known accounts were written by men.• Fabulously illustrated with over 100 contemporary photographs and illustrations, 30 in color.There were 712 survivors of the Titanic disaster and their horrific experience has captivated readers and movie goers for almost 100 years. But what was it actually like for a woman to say goodbye to her husband? For a mother to leave her teenage sons? For the unlucky many who found themselves in the freezing Atlantic waters (a few did live to tell the tale)?Titanic Voices is the most comprehensive collection of Titanic survivors' accounts ever published and includes many unpublished, and long forgotten accounts, unabridged, together with an authoritative editorial commentary. It is also the first book to include substantial accounts from women survivors - most of the previously well known accounts were written by men.
