This is a must-have for any and every Titanic Fanatic! Let me name the ways:
#1 Beautiful drawings depicting the beautiful steamer before its tragic end.

#2 Very clear, original photographs of the Titanic and her passengers.

#3 Well written, new and startling stories of the ship and her passengers. (One I had never heard was about Alice Cleaver, the Allison's "nanny" who had just gotten out of prison for throwing her own infant off a train!! Yikes! If only the Allison's had known...)

#4 This is a big book! I mean, it's thick, it's wide, and it's tall. This means HUGE pictures... great for unit studies and personal enjoyment.

All around, this book is great for those new and old to the Titanic story. I should also mention this book is wonderful for ALL ages. The younger group might not understand some of the stories, but the pictures are splendid.

Check out my Book List for more books about the Titanic. I am a Titanic Fanatic myself, so I have a lot of books on the subject.
My book list is called "Titanic: 100 Years".
