Book Description
“Iceberg right ahead!” yelled Frederick Fleet, a crewmember aboard the Titanic. The ship had only seconds to spare. Titanic’s officers steered the ship to the left as quickly as they could to avoid a head-on collision. But they weren’t fast enough. The right side of the ship struck the side of the ice mountain floating in the north Atlantic. The fate of the Titanic—and its 1,317 passengers and 885 crewmembers—had been sealed. Titanic’s Fatal Voyage tells the devastating story of how the gigantic and supposedly unsinkable ship was swallowed by the sea on its maiden voyage. Readers will learn about the ocean liner’s journey in vivid detail, as well as incredible tales of courage and survival. The fascinating content and large-format color images, maps, and fact boxes bring the Titanic’s tragic story to life. Titanic’s Fatal Voyage is part of Bearport’s Titanica series.

Book Description
Titanic Style explores the world of fashion and dress at the time of RMS Titanic’s famous voyage. With stunning images and enlightening historical analysis, this book takes us through the wardrobes of passengers and crew of all classes and ages, from the most intimate undergarments to the warm overcoats needed on that last fearful, cold night. The ship was a microcosm of post-Edwardian society, in which everyone belonged to a particular class and dressed accordingly. The luxurious attire of the ladies in first class, the cream of European and American society, was changed several times a day, while the more sober and conservative clothes of the men of all ranks subtly conveyed their status, and children were dressed to enhance their social standing. We also visit the families below deck, dressed in second-hand or homemade clothes, heading for a new life in a country free of repressive class distinction. Stories and records of individual passengers and crew members are woven into the narrative to give an engaging account of what life was really like onboard the world’s most famous ocean liner. Whether you are a Titanic enthusiast, a fashion lover, or both, this book will delight you with exquisite garments and the absorbing cultural history behind them.

Book Description
A character-driven Titanic time travel romance for the ages... Clara, can you hear me? My name's Liam Peterson. Ever since I graduated from high school, I've worked at the Titanic Voyage ride in Historytown, a struggling amusement park in Eloy, Arizona. And Clara, ever since I read your journal, I've been enchanted by your story. You saved several fellow Third Class passengers on the Titanic before you perished in the sinking. You're a hero. I never dreamed I'd meet you. But one night, the teenage son of Historytown's founder tricks me into thinking that a 3D projection of you is a theme park guest. Well, I think it's a prank, but as I spend time with your "holoactor" on the sets of Titanic Voyage, the past starts to change. Somehow, I've been visiting the real Clara Jones. Then tragedy strikes my life outside the ride. My only escape from the grief is the hope of saving you and giving you a long, happy life. But if I rewrite your history, I might erase my own.
