Titanic : minute by minute / Jonathan Mayo. - London : Short Books, 2016. - 333 pages : illustrations (black and white) ; 20 cm.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
At 2.20am on April 15th 1912, the Titanic was plunging 12,000 feet to the ocean floor. The Titanic had broken into two pieces - her streamlined bow speeding to the bottom of the sea, her stern sinking slower, breaking up as it went. Machinery, coal, crystal goblets, pianos and jewellery all tumbled through the dark water. It would take an hour for all the remains of the great ship to hit the seabed. Hundreds of passengers and crew were still trapped below decks - hundreds more were floating on the surface. This book is the story of the sinking, told in fascinating detail.
