Titanic and Liverpool

"Drawing on material from the White Star line archives, the extensive holdings of the Merseyside Maritime Museum, and a variety of historical sources, Alan Scarth unearths the back story of key characters and institutions. Many of Titanic's officers and crew were either from Liverpool or had strong links with the port, the ship's owners were based in the city, and many of the most colourful tales to emerge from the disaster relate to Liverpool people."- BOOK JACKET.
