"CQD" ("Come Quickly Danger") - this marine disaster signal was heard immediately after midnight April 15, 1912. And again: "cqd", both more and again, with a mordino: "My God, this is CQD. We are faced with iceberg. Come immediately ", then the coordinates in the North Atlantic and the call sign" Mgy ". The call sign of the transatlantic liner "Titanic" ... The largest and most perfect ship of its time, supposedly impeccable, supposedly unsinkable, visual symbol of the new technological era and all Western civilization, went to the bottom in the first flight, taking away more than one and a half thousand lives. The tragedy of "Titanic" shocked the whole world, becoming a significant event of the XX century, which they continue to argue about.
This book gives a complete picture of the legendary liner, now resting at a depth of almost four kilometers, and his tragic fate. Colossal volume of information, hundreds of exclusive drawings and photos! Of particular interest is the publication of the key fragments of the novel by Morgan Robertson "The Wreck of the Titan: Or, Futility" ("death" of "titanium, or futility), which came out 14 years before the Titanic disaster and precisely predicted a future tragedy (and coincided not Only the circumstances of the shipwreck and the name of the ships, but even their main technical characteristics and the main reason for the large number of victims!) This famous book was translated into Russian for the first time - especially for this publication
