When you hear about the Titanic, you probably think of the romance movie. Well, this book had zero mushy, gross stuff in it. It was full of first hand accounts from the survivors. It had the heart breaking stories of children torn from their parents, newly-wed wives being wrenched from their new spouses. This book was absolutely amazing. Usually, you hear the Titanic's story from teachers. You don't really get how awful the event was until you read from the point of view of people that were actually on the boat.
I loved this book. It's outstanding. If you have a weak heart or stomach, I would not recommend this book. To everyone else, you should definitely read it. It may have a little romance in it, if you consider wives clutching to their husbands who refused to get on a lifeboat before the women and children do romance. I give this book an A+.

I've seen the movie, and I cried a lot. This tragedy needs to be remembered by all.
Yes. It should. But this is not like the movie. It has actual stories from actual people that were on the boat.
