About this book

This newspaper book opens on April 11th 1912 to report on the launch of “the largest ship in the world” – Titanic. On leaving Southampton docks the previous day, Titanic came perilously close to a collision after the wake caused by the liner caused a steamer to break away from the quay and into Titanic’s path.

When Titanic sank, days into that maiden voyage, it shocked the world. The public was frantic for information and answers. This book captures the newspaper articles the pulic read in the newspapers at the time.

The aftermath of this tragedy is also documented including anxious friends and relatives seeking news of their loved ones, reports from Titanic memorial services and relief efforts to raise funds for those affected, plus news from the inevitable trade inquiry.

Archivist insight: We reproduce these newspaper articles from scan archives. In some cases, there’ll be blemishes and the reproduction quality might not be as clear or precise as it was in the original paper.
