<p>"<strong>THE LOSS OF THE S. S. TITANIC</strong> - Top Classic Novels" This edition included <strong>NEW illustrations + Free AudioBook Links</strong> + Clickable Table of Contents for both the list of included books and their respective chapters. Navigation couldn't be easier.</p> <p>The text and chapters are perfectly set up to match the layout and feel of a physical copy, rather than being haphazardly thrown together for a quick release.</p> <p>First published in 1912, just two short months after the sinking of the TITANIC, this hauntingly immediate account opens with Lawrence Beesley's story of arriving onshore and soon after walking through the doors of Messrs. Houghton and Mifflin to tell his tale. THE LOSS OF THE S.S. TITANIC represents Beesley's attempt not just to record the events of the sinking but to set the record straight. In so doing, he captures both the majesty and the tragedy of this legendary voyage -- the view from the lifeboat as well as that from the deck. Full of wonderful nautical detail and written with a hair-raising clarity, THE LOSS OF THE S.S. TITANIC is an altogether spellbinding tale of that fateful night -- one you won't soon forget.</p> <p><strong>Lawrence Beesley</strong> (31 December 1877 ? 14 February 1967) was a Science teacher, journalist and author who was a survivor of the sinking of the RMS Titanic.

Titanic Hero The Autobiography of Captain Rostron of the Carpathia【電子書籍】[ Sir Arthur H. Rostron ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The story of the Titanic in the words of the hero whose swift action saved the lives of 710 survivors. The Carpathia was on its regular voyage to New York City, when early on 15 April 1912 it received a distress signal from the White Star Line ocean liner Titanic, which had struck an iceberg and was sinking. Rostron was asleep when his wireless operator, Harold Cottam, by chance left his headset on while undressing for bed and so heard the signal. Cottam ran to Rostron's cabin to alert him. Rostron immediately ordered the ship to race towards the Titanic's reported position, posting extra lookouts to help spot and manoeuvre around the ice he knew to be in the area and extracted every bit of speed the ship's engines could muster. Even so, Carpathia, travelling through dangerous ice floes, took about 3A hours to reach the Titanic's radioed position. During this time Rostron turned off heating to ensure the maximum amount of steam for the ship's engines and had the ship prepared for the survivors; including getting blankets, food and drinks ready, and ordering his medical crew to stand by to receive the possibly injured survivors. Altogether, a list of 23 orders from Rostron to his crew was successfully implemented before Carpathia had even arrived at the scene of the disaster. Carpathia began picking up survivors about an hour after the first starburst was seen by those in the lifeboats. The Carpathia would end up rescuing 710 survivors out of the 2,228 passengers and crew on board the Titanic; at least one survivor is said to have died after reaching the ship. Later, Rostron testified about the events the night Titanic sank at both the U.S. Senate inquiry and the British Board of Trade's inquiry into the disaster.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,804円

And the Band Played On: The enthralling account of what happened after the Titanic sank The enthralling account of what happened after the Titanic sank【電子書籍】[ Christopher Ward ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>On 14th April 1912 the <em>Titanic</em> struck an iceberg on her maiden voyage and sank. Fifteen hundred passengers and crew lost their lives. As the order to abandon ship was given, the orchestra took their instruments on deck and continued to play. They were still playing when the ship went down. The violinist, 21 year-old Jock Hume, knew that his fianc??e, Mary, was expecting their first child, the author's mother. One hundred years later, Christopher Ward reveals a dramatic story of love, loss and betrayal, and the catastrophic impact of Jock's death on two very different Scottish families. He paints a vivid portrait of an age in which class determined the way you lived - and died. An outstanding piece of historical detective work, AND THE BAND PLAYED ON is also a moving account of how the author's quest to learn more about his grandfather revealed the shocking truth about a family he thought he knew, a truth that had been hidden for nearly a hundred years.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,856円

He gives exact details of how this, the most notorious unsolved crime of the twentieth century, was accomplished.<br /> In 2012, when the will is finally made public, Gunny Vernon, a retired recon marine, learns that his adopted grandson is the sole heir to the deceased pirate's fortune. When Gunny and family find themselves required to comply with the conditions of the will, they are suddenly embroiled in great danger, which pits them against a stacked deck loaded with bad genes and fanatical terrorists.

<p>From the Text:</p> <p>"An undulating blanket of ruin spread to the horizon off the port side of the Mackay-Bennett. Wedged between gray sky and blue-black sea lay the thin brown netting of shattered wood and the dead. The Embalmer saw a bright flash of color: the circle of an unstained red and white lifebelt, bobbing, empty.</p> <p>He tried to count the bodies, corked and frozen stiff on the waves. Ten. Tens. Fifty. More, spreading, to his untrained eye, for a nautical mile, perhaps more. The crew made grim and determined expressions, but to the Embalmer, it was a ripe field.</p> <p>He made no effort to contain his round-faced happiness.</p> <p>'We can work with this, lads!' he said, nodding, 'We can work with this!'"</p> <p>In this Tale of the Haunted Titanic, a humble cable-repair ship is called into emergency duty: a mission to recover the RMS Titanic's dead.

Dit boek vertelt niet alleen het verhaal van reddingsboot nr. 6, met aan boord Margaret Brown ('The unsinkable Molly Brown') en uitkijk Frederic Fleet ('Iceberg right ahead'), ook komen talloze andere opmerkelijke, bekende en onbekende, tragische en ontroerende verhalen en levensgeschiedenissen van bemanningsleden en passagiers aan bod. Zoals dat van schrijver William Stead (die jaren eerder de ramp al had voorspeld maar desondanks aan boord stapte) en verpleegster Violet Jessop (die niet alleen het zinken van de Titanic overleefde maar vier jaar later ook de ondergang van het zusterschip de Britannic). Of neem de drie broers Slade, als stokers aangemonsterd. Vlak voor vertrek gingen ze in een pub nog wat drinken, kwamen te laat terug bij de boot, waar een woeste en tierende officier weigerde om de loopplank weer te laten zakken, waardoor ze noodgedwongen achterbleven op de kade.

Sinking of the Titanic and Great Sea Disasters【電子書籍】[ Anonymous ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>LIKE a bolt out of a clear sky came the wireless message on Monday, April 15, 1912, that on Sunday night the great Titanic, on her maiden voyage across the Atlantic, had struck a gigantic iceberg, but that all the passengers were saved. The ship had signaled her distress and another victory was set down to wireless. Twenty-one hundred lives saved! Additional news was soon received that the ship had collided with a mountain of ice in the North Atlantic, off Cape Race, Newfoundland, at 10.25 Sunday evening, April 14th. At 4.15 Monday morning the Canadian Government Marine Agency received a wireless message that the Titanic was sinking and that the steamers towing her were trying to get her into shoal water near Cape Race, for the purpose of beaching her. Wireless despatches up to noon Monday showed that the passengers of the Titanic were being transferred aboard the steamer Carpathia, a Cunarder, which left New York, April 13th, for Naples. Twenty boat-loads of the Titanic's passengers were said to have been transferred to the Carpathia then, and allowing forty to sixty persons as the capacity of each life-boat, some 800 or 1500 persons had already been transferred from the damaged liner to the Carpathia. They were reported as being taken to Halifax, whence they would be sent by train to New York. Another liner, the Parisian, of the Allan Company, which sailed from Glasgow for Halifax on April 6th, was said to be close at hand and assisting in the work of rescue. The Baltic, Virginian and Olympic were also near the scene, according to the information received by wireless. While badly damaged, the giant vessel was reported as still afloat, but whether she could reach port or shoal water was uncertain. The White Star officials declared that the Titanic was in no immediate danger of sinking, because of her numerous water-tight compartments. "While we are still lacking definite information," Mr. Franklin, vice-president of the White Star Line, said later in the afternoon, "we believe the Titanic's passengers will reach Halifax, Wednesday evening. We have received no further word from Captain Haddock, of the Olympic, or from any of the ships in the vicinity, but are confident that there will be no loss of life." With the understanding that the survivors would be taken to Halifax the line arranged to have thirty Pullman cars, two diners and many passenger coaches leave Boston Monday night for Halifax to get the passengers after they were landed. Mr. Franklin made a guess that the Titanic's passengers would get into Halifax on Wednesday. The Department of Commerce and Labor notified the White Star Line that customs and immigration inspectors would be sent from Montreal to Halifax in order that there would be as little delay as possible in getting the passengers on trains.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,200円

Titanic and Her Sisters A Postcard History【電子書籍】[ Janette McCutcheon ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In 1908, the White Star Line announced it was constructing a pair of sister ships at the Harland & Wolff yard in Belfast. The new behemoths would dwarf even the largest ships of the time, being fully one-third larger than any ship afloat. They would also be the most sumptuous vessels built to date, carrying their millionaire passengers in unsurpassed luxury. The two ships, Olympic and Titanic, were to be followed by a third sister, originally to be called Gigantic, but renamed as Britannic after the sinking of Titanic in April 1912. Janette and Campbell McCutcheon tell the story of the White Star trio using a fabulous collection of original postcards and photos of the three sisters, only one of which was ever to make a return voyage from New York. With the loss of Titanic in 1912, work was suspended on Britannic, but she was to sink on her sixth voyage as a hospital ship, during the First World War. Despite sinking a U-boat by ramming it, Olympic survived the war and was scrapped in Jarrow in 1935 after twenty-four years of service for White Star.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,804円

The Titanic Plan【電子書籍】[ Michael Bockman ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>On October 16, 1907, the American financial system stood on the brink of collapse after one of the largest investment firms failed because of speculative trading. There was no Federal Reserve to help, no government agencies to prop up the failing institutions. Seeing this as a defining crisis, J. Pierpont Morgan stepped in and organized a consortium of bankers and financiers to support the ailing system until the crisis passed. When it finally did, Morgan vowed that he would do everything in his power to make sure such a calamity never happen again.</p> <p>Set between the years of 1907 to 1912 and inspired by true events, The Plan tells the story of the many factions of American society as they struggled for power in one of the most dynamic times in the country’s history. The major characters are the giants of that era: capitalists J. Pierpont Morgan, John Astor, William Vanderbilt; labor leaders Big Bill Haywood and Emma Goldman; and Presidents Theodore Roosevelt and William Howard Taft.<br /> At the center of it all is Captain Archibald Butt, the Military Aide (and close confidant) to both Roosevelt and Taft. Captain Butt becomes involved in a deepening intrigue after an old Army compatriot is killed in a mysterious explosion. The quest by Captain Butt to solve the mystery of his best friend’s death leads him from the White House, to the anarchist circles in Greenwich Village, to the shadowy halls of the newly created FBI, and finally, to the parlors of the rich and powerful. Amid double-crosses and shifting alliances, Archie Butt witnesses the formulation of The Plan and recognizes it as a brilliant and dangerous power grab that will lead to the first great disaster of the 20th Century.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 433円

Before the launch Leovinus is having one last little look round and begins to find that things just aren’t right: poor workmanship, cybersystems out of control, robots walking into doors. How could this have happened?</p> <p>The following morning, while the galaxy’s media looks on, the fabulous ship eases away from the construction dock, picks up speed, sways a little, wobbles a bit, veers wildly and, just before it can do untold damage to everything around it, appears to undergo SMEF (Spontaneous Massive Existence Failure). In just ten seconds, the whole stupendous enterprise is over.

It represents more than preserves; it's her last connection to her mother and Ireland.</p> <p>On the night of April 14th, when the ship strikes the iceberg, chaos erupts in third class. Locked gates and confusion trap passengers below decks. As Brigid's brother Darragh helps her into a lifeboat, he makes her taste the jam one last time. "Just a taste," he says, dipping his finger in the raspberry sweetness. "So you remember."</p> <p>Brother and sister are separated forever as the boat is lowered. Brigid survives, clutching both the jam tin and a small wooden bird carved by Matthew, while Darragh goes down with the ship.</p> <p>The story follows Brigid through rescue, arrival in New York, and eventually to her aunt's home in Chicago. Years later, she shares her mother's jam with her own children, telling them about the brother who saved her life and the promises that bind families across time and tragedy.</p> <p>"The Jam Tin" is a heartrending tale of sibling love, immigrant dreams, and how the smallest objects can carry the deepest meanings.
