Best survivor account.

One of the best first-hand accounts of the sinking. Definitely recommend to anyone seeking survivor accounts.

Well done and a wonderful account.

seems to gives an account different from most of modern drama/Hollywood. and makes points that even I, a avid fan of Titanic, was unaware of until today.

First Hand Account. Reliable Account.

Mr Beesley’s account of that fateful night’s tragedy is lucid and sobering. His account is consistent with most of the scientific evidence attributed to date.

A thoughtful account of his own experience

Insightful and thought-provoking, an attempt to set the record straight and separate the fact from fiction for the historical record. it was a little dry and took a while to get into, but it was well worth the read. I enjoyed his thoughtful and factual account and the lessons he took away from the experience. Many of them still hold true all this time later, even though we've learned more about the circumstances and causes in recent years.

Wonderfully Spellbinding

I confess to a mild obsession regarding the disaster but in the case of this audiobook and the narrator, it did not matter. I simply could not stop listening.

Good overall book

I've always been interested in the Titanic and I try to read anything I can in it. This was the 1st book I've read where it was just straight information in a story, with no extra plot. I also really enjoyed the narrative of it.

Compelling story...

Very interesting narrative from a Titanic surviver. A must read. Many of its themes are still relevant today.
