We only learned about our father's girlfriend after he became deathly ill and lay in a coma 120 miles from our home. Overhearing the nurse tell Linda - since I was nine I had called my mom by her first name - about the girlfriend who came in almost every day to visit him when we weren't there confirmed that the last moment of normal had passed us by without our realizing it. Up to then, our family had unhappily coexisted with Dad flying jumbo jets to Asia while we lived in Montana.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 36
England's Tudor monarchs - Henry VII, Henry VIII, Edward VI, Mary I, and Elizabeth I - are perhaps the most celebrated and fascinating of all royal families in history. Their love affairs, their political triumphs, and their overturning of the religious order are the subject of countless works of popular scholarship. But for all we know about Henry's quest for male heirs or Elizabeth's purported virginity, the lives of the Tudor monarchs away from the public eye remain largely beyond our grasp, mostly not chronicled by previous historians.

Publisher's Summary
The original 1912 news accounts of the Titanic disaster include the first-hand accounts of survivors as told to reporters who met the ship bringing them from where they were saved from lifeboats. The surviving crew describes the crucial moments after the ship hit the iceberg. A crewman testifies just three days after the sinking that the ship had a fire in its coal bunkers from the time it set sail.

A very interesting perspective on the Titanic.
Where does Titanic 1912: The Original News Reporting of the Sinking of the Titanic rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
This is one of the best because it presents great, new information about a topic that I have always been interested in.
Who was your favorite character and why?
A lot of the characters in the whole Titanic story are quite familiar and it is hard to pick a favourite but it was great to learn more details about them.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Some of the stories had very emotional parts that really touched a person and only by reading the original stories do you get that close to the actual story.
Any additional comments?
This is such an interesting perspective on the Titanic story that I have never come across before.

Iceberg did not jump out and attack theTitanic
What made the experience of listening to Titanic 1912: The Original News Reporting of the Sinking of the Titanic the most enjoyable?
Barry Abram's expression as he told the story
What was one of the most memorable moments of Titanic 1912: The Original News Reporting of the Sinking of the Titanic?
I found the fake news reports the most memorable
What about Barry Abrams’s performance did you like?
Again, his expression as he told the story
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
The iceberg did not jump out and attack the Titanic!!!
Any additional comments?
As I was rereading Titanic 1912, my husband had the news channel on TV. I irony was not lost on me as I read about the ‘misunderstandings’ in the initial news coverage. Or the errors mixed with the conjured and fabricated news stories. Some things never change! Even armchair quarterbacks still believe the notion that somehow the rich were favored for escaping the sinking ship while the lower classes died. They must have seen the movie instead of reading the lists of those who went down with the ship. As usual, Ken Rossignol went to original sources to garner information for this book. Thank goodness he took H.L. Mencken’s advice that a cynic is a man who, when he smells flowers, looks around for a coffin. Ken looks around and carefully checks out all of the ‘coffins’ he finds. There is a lot of information in this book and I highly recommend it for those whose minds aren’t already made up. The iceberg did not jump out and attack the Titanic!!!

New and Interesting Details of the Titanic
This was an Audiobook that really brings the amount of misinformation and out and out fraudulent articles that occurred in the titanic news coverage.
The narration kept the reporting of these facts interesting and enjoyable. The reports were so varied that the people on shore waiting for their family members were put through the wringer in emotion. The news that there were no deaths and all were rescued was especially cruel knowing now that so many perished.
There have been rumors of cover ups and even people paid to earn a place on the lifeboats. The crew and the passengers were all unequipped for a disaster of this magnitude. The sinking of Titanic caused changes in several different safety regulations. The news media took a terrible accident and created even more sensation. The eyewitness reports were as expected differing and varied, but each were reported with sensationalism that did nothing to help those that had been left widowed or orphaned.
A great book and an even better audiobook. Ken Rossignol has brought an event that happened over one hundred years ago new life. Comparing the different wrecks of the time as well as current ship disasters really allows you to see the similarities in the reporting of these events. If you have an interest in the Titanic then this is not to be missed.
