Sinossi
Titanic expert Tim Maltin, whose magnum opus on the history of the doomed liner will be published in 2012, here reveals in short, snappy and fascinating answers why the 'truths' people are told about the Titanic and the night she sank are mostly untrue. There weren't enough lifeboats. Owner Ismay ordered the ship to go faster because he was trying to break a record. The band played Nearer My God to Thee as she sank. Are these stories true or false? Here, Martin reveals all. Readers will never think in the same way about the Titanic again!

Recensione
'Tim Maltin has done a fine job of dispelling the myths that have attached themselves to the Titanic saga since the great vessel disappeared beneath the surface of the North Atlantic in the spring of 1912. Carefully researched and meticulously detailed, this book is a worthy addition to the library of anyone who has even a passing interest in the Titanic disaster.' --George Behe, Vice President, Titanic Historical Society 1992-1996
'Tim Maltin has addressed the many questions and myths that have arisen over Titanic but he has gone one further than the average author in that he has brought forth the testimony of the people who were there, coupled with the latest research to back up his work. Maltin s book is a must for any Titanic enthusiast s collection.' --Bruce Beveridge, Founder, Titanic Research and Modeling Association
For once we have a book that addresses some of myths and popular legends that have propagated down the years and been repeated in books, articles, movies, TV documentaries, and most recently on the internet. It is well written with many references to the direct evidence presented first hand by those who were there at the formal inquiries that followed the disaster back in 1912. --Sam Halpern, Titanic researcher and author
