Description
Roy8vo, 297pp. Hardcover,with navy blue cloth boards with only mild shelf wear on edges and the title in silver on the firm spine with a colourful d/w only marked by two very small closed tears on both front and rear now protected by clear archival covering, Very mild flecking on all edges also. the many illustrations and wonderful photos are in a pristine state as is the text with great ep’s depicting the ship internal structure in profile, the book thereby being in overall excellent condition. This volume examines both the technological triumph of the discovery of The Titanic on the ocean floor over two miles down and also reassesses the issues and problems raised by the tragic sinking. The negligent and criminal behaviour exposed both pre and post discovery is an amazing and tantalizing factual examination resulting in the book being unlike any of the many other works about the Titanic and the White Star Line.
