Archibald Gracie Orden de los libros

A new edition of this Titanic classic, with a new introduction and many rare images.

The book serves as a facsimile reprint of an original antiquarian work, preserving its historical significance despite potential imperfections like marks and flawed pages. It reflects a commitment to cultural preservation and accessibility, offering a high-quality modern edition that remains true to the original text. This initiative aims to protect and promote important literary works for contemporary readers.

Here is a survivor's vivid account of the greatest maritime disaster in history. The information contained in Gracie's account is available from no other source. He provides details of those final moments, including names of passengers pulled from the ocean and of those men who, in a panic, jumped into lifeboats as they were being lowered, causing injury and further danger to life. Walter Lord, author of A Night to Remember, comments that Gracie's book?written shortly before he died from the exposure he suffered on that night?is "invaluable for chasing down who went in what boat," and calls Gracie "an indefatigable detective."
