The story of the Titanic rescue ship from her days as an immigrant ship, the rescue of over 700 survivors of Titanic, to her service and sinking in WW1. This description may be from another edition of this product.
Initially expected deck plans and more technical information, but the "To the Reader" (page ix) helped set up the focus of the story onto the major historical events of the life of this 1902 built (page 214) liner. Not only concentrating on the Titanic rescue, but also the final military destruction of the liner in 1918. This 2017 book also has an "Afterword" section which includes the verified locating of the sunk wreck in 2000. Very well written and fun to read!
