		Unsinkable: The Full Story of the RMS Titanic

Just before midnight on April 14, 1912, the ocean liner Titanic struck an iceberg. Less than three hours later, she lay at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean, having taken with her more than 1,500 of the roughly 2,200 people on board. Even now, a century later, no other ship in history has attracted so much attention, stirred up such powerful emotion, or accumulated as many legends.

“Unsinkable” provides a fresh look at the Titanic's incredible story. Following the great ship from her conception to her fateful collision to the ambitious attempts to salvage her right up to the present day, Daniel Allen Butler draws on thirty years of research to explore the tragedy and its aftermath in remarkable depth and detail. The result is a must-read for anyone interested in the Titanic.

Mr. Butler's work has been compared (unfavorably) with Walter Lord's classic "A Night to Remember." "Unsinkable" has been slammed as a regurgitation of previously published books about the Titanic disaster--unfairly, I feel. Many of the books on the market about Titanic contain a great deal of the same information--unsurprisingly! The ship *sank* on the first leg of its maiden voyage! There's a limited amount of information on the ship, its crew, and the events of April 15, 1912.
What makes a Titanic book stand out are the small nuggets of information evey autho managesto put into thei text. Each author brings something new to the subject, but it *does* require one to *read* the books, not skim through them.
Mr. Butler has very strong opinions about the Titanic disaster, and there are times when the author's "voice" comes through *very* clearly. After reading "Unsinkable," one will have no doubts at to his views on the events of April 15. He presents his arguments thoroughly and clearly, amd most emphatically. (He is also featured in the IMAX movie, Titanica. There is one portion of his interview that moved me to tears, reminding me that the story of the Titanic is about *people* and always has been.) I consider it a good addition to my library of Titanic books.

This is my absolute favorite Titanic book I've read yet. I am obsessed with the story of the Titanic and this book has it all from where the White Star Line started, to burying the bodies. Very well researched and easy to read. A must have for any Titanic enthusiast

Awesome! !!!
I've been dying to learn about the real story of the Titanic!

I chose to read this despite some previous reviews. This is my first read on the subject and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I'd recommend this to others who are looking for a first read on the Titanic.

I was very interested in learning the true accounts in regards to what happened to Titanic. It's helpful to be able to have discussions with people that never read anything about the disaster beyond seeing the movie, and thinking THAT was the actual account of what happened.
