The catastrophe that occurred on the April night of 1912 in the North Atlantic truly shook the world. Out of the 2208 people on board the liner 'Titanic', only 712 passengers and crew members were saved... A new book by one of the recognized international experts on the history of the 'Titanic' exposes the most common myths about the greatest disaster and reveals the true circumstances of the tragedy that still haunts humanity to this day.
Were there any Russian passengers on the 'Titanic' or individuals connected to the Russian Empire? Was the 'Titanic' replaced by a similar liner called the 'Olympic'? Was there discrimination against third-class passengers during the evacuation from the 'Titanic'? Were mirages or magnetic storms responsible for the ship's demise? What were the true circumstances of the rescue of the director of the company that owned the 'Titanic' and his subsequent life marked by the stigma of being a 'coward' and an 'outcast'? The author thoroughly examines these, as well as many other widely spread myths about the 'Titanic'.
The book contains a significant amount of information previously unavailable in Russian and not presented on the Internet. The edition is illustrated with rare photographs and drawings, including those provided exclusively to the author.
