The Wreck of the Titan Morgan Robertson This collection of four sea stories by American author Morgan Robertson includes his most famous work -The Wreck of the Titan, or Futility - a tale of an "unsinkable" ship's deadly collision with an iceberg, written 14 years before the real-life Titanic disaster. Other stories in this collection include: a Navy officer's struggle with deserters who have commandeered his vessel; the opening battles of a U.S.-Japanese war in the Pacific with a terrifying new weapon; and a gripping escape from a sabotaged submarine. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection.

Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work.
