Description
In the early hours of 15 April 1912, the RMS Titanic, newest flagship of the White Star Line, sank with great loss of life after striking an iceberg on her maiden voyage from Southampton to New York. RMS Titanic was the ship that was supposedly unsinkable, but on that fateful night the impossible happened, shaking to the core the rich and powerful of Britain and the United States, complacent in their belief that nature herself could be tamed. This association with the powerful and famous, combined with the ship's 'indestructible' tag and huge loss of life, ensures that the Titanic continues to fascinate and intrigue people the world over. Using many previously unpublished photographs, letters and oral histories Titanic Voices is a recreation of the sinking of the great ship, reliving the events through the first-hand accounts of those who were actually there.
