Titanic: Freak Accident or Farce?【電子書籍】[ Andrew Norman ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>There has been speculation over the loss of the Royal Mail Ship (RMS) Titanic ever since the tragic event of her sinking, which occurred during the night of Sunday 14 to Monday 15 April 1912. Could it have been the fault of her captain, Edward J. Smith?</p> <p>Hitherto, no one has managed to explain the mindset of Titanic’s captain, Edward Smith, and thereby comprehend why, on a pitch-black night in April 1912, he drove his ship full tilt into an ice field, when he knew that there were icebergs present? Was the captain mentally ill? No, not in the sense of having one of the traditional major psychiatric conditions such as schizophrenia, psychosis, bipolar disorder, etcetera, because this would have manifested itself earlier on in his lifetime. Captain Smith was aged 62 at the time of the disaster. Was he suffering from dementia? There is no evidence that this was the case.</p> <p>In fact, Captain Smith’s state of mind provides a classic example of what was described by the ancient Greeks more than 2,000 years ago, As the reader will shortly discover!</p> <p>This book contains hitherto unpublished photographs, for example of Laura May Cribb, from the author's hometown of Poole in Dorset, who survived the sinking, and of her father John Hatfield Cribb, who perished.</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。

The Band That Played On The Extraordinary Story of the 8 Musicians Who Went Down with the Titanic【電子書籍】[ Steve Turner ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>The movies, the documentaries, the museum exhibits. They often tell the same story about the "unsinkable" <em>Titanic</em>, her wealthy passengers, the families torn apart, and the unthinkable end. But never before has "that glorious band," the group of eight musicians who played on as the <em>Titanic</em> slipped deeper and deeper into the Atlantic Ocean, been explored in such depth--until now.</strong></p> <p>Join renowned biographer Steve Turner as he shares an extraordinary portrait of eight men who were thrown together on a maiden voyage, never having played together as a band, and whose names will be forever linked because of an extraordinary act of courage in the face of death.</p> <p>In <em>The Band that Played On</em>, Turner asks and answers key questions, including:</p> <ul> <li>How did the faith of the band members allow them to react with grace under pressure?</li> <li>Why does the story of the <em>Titanic</em> continue to fascinate?</li> <li>How does the legacy of that glorious band live on today?</li> </ul> <p><strong>Praise for <em>The Band that Played On</em>:</strong></p> <p>" <em>The Band that Played On</em> is, surprisingly, the first book since the great ship went down to examine the lives of the eight musicians who were employed by the Titanic. What these men did--standing calmly on deck playing throughout the disaster--achieved global recognition. But their individual stories, until now, have been largely unknown. What Turner has uncovered is a narrow but unique slice of history--one more chapter of compelling Titanic lore."</p> <p><strong>--Marjorie Kehe, Book Editor, <em>Christian Science Monitor</em></strong></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。

<p>Many people on Canada’s east coast, the maritime regions, have experienced the temperament of the North Atlantic Ocean: beautiful, moody, mysterious.

Cape Race: Stories from the Coast that Sank the Titanic presents 48 stories of tragedy and heroic rescue from the sea surrounding Cape Race, Newfoundland, including the story of the magnificent liner whose sinking off that coast in 1912 was felt around the world.</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。

The Truth About the Titanic【電子書籍】[ Archibald Gracie ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Although he survived the sinking by seven months, it was the Titanic that killed Colonel Archibald Gracie. His struggles in the icy waters of the North Atlantic had shattered his constitution, and the awful things he had seen on that fateful night left him a haunted man. One observer said he had the look of someone “who had descended as distinctly into hell as any human being would care to acknowledge, and had risen again from the dead.” Nevertheless he tried to make sense of his experiences, and this book was published soon after his death. The first half is his own account of the sinking, and shows how he had to be both lucky and strong just to live through the night. In the second half he tells the individual stories of each of the Titanic’s lifeboats, summarizing the bare facts and then providing dramatic survivor accounts, from personal interviews and from testimony given to the British and American inquiries into the disaster. In its author’s desperate search for the truth, this book remains one of the most powerful works on the sinking of the Titanic.</p> <p>This ebook edition features:</p> <p>? 16 photographs and illustrations from the first edition</p> <p>?

Titanic - Der Untergang einer Welt Ein SPIEGEL E-Book【電子書籍】
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In der finsteren Neumond-Nacht des 14. April 1912 rammte der Luxus-Liner "RMS Titanic" auf seiner Jungfernfahrt einen Eisberg im Nordatlantik. Zwei Stunden und vierzig Minuten sp?ter versank das gr??te Schiff, das bis dahin gebaut wurde. Rund 1500 Menschen starben. Es war aber auch die Geburtsstunde eines Mythos, der viele bis heute fasziniert. Tausende von B?chern wurden im Lauf der Jahrzehnte geschrieben, viele Filme und Dokumentationen ver?ffentlicht. Es gab weitaus schlimmere Schiffskatastrophen seither ? warum wurde ausgerechnet die Titanic zur Legende? Seit Jahrzehnten versuchen Forscher und Abenteurer, alle R?tsel zu l?sen, alle Geheimnisse zu l?ften, die sich um die "Titanic" ranken. DER SPIEGEL hat immer wieder ?ber neue Erkenntnisse berichtet, die wichtigsten dieser Texte liegen nun als E-Book vor. Es geht beispielsweise darum, wie es ?berhaupt zum Untergang kommen konnte: War ein geheim gehaltenes Feuer in einem Kohlenbunker der Grund? Wollte der Kapit?n einen Rekord brechen? Hatte die Werft aus Profitsucht gepfuscht? Es geht aber auch um Schicksale, Mut, Verzweiflung, um menschliche Dramen auf den Decks des untergehenden Schiffes. Und es geht um die Bedeutung der Katastrophe, das Symbolhafte. Denn der Untergang der "Titanic" l?utete das Ende einer Epoche ein, einer Technik-gl?ubigen Zeit, in der Stahlbarone und Kaufhaus-Magnaten gigantische Verm?gen anh?ufen konnten, w?hrend die Armen in Fabriken schufteten. Und doch herrschte ein ungez?gelter Optimismus ? nichtsahnend fuhren denn auch arme Auswanderer und Multimillion?re an Bord des vermeintlich unsinkbaren Schiffs auf den Atlantik hinaus. Zwei Jahre sp?ter versanken dann ihre V?lker, versank ihre ganze Welt im furchtbaren Chaos des Ersten Weltkriegs.</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。

The Truth About the Titanic Enriched edition.【電子書籍】[ Archibald Gracie ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In "The Truth About the Titanic," Archibald Gracie presents a compelling firsthand account of the tragic sinking of the RMS Titanic, drawing from his own experiences as a survivor. Through meticulous narrative detail and a gripping style, Gracie intertwines personal reflections with a broader critique of the events leading up to the disaster. This work not only chronicles the harrowing night of April 15, 1912, but also delves into the social dynamics and technological hubris of the early 20th century that contributed to the tragedy. Richly descriptive, Gracie's prose captures the human emotions under duress, providing a unique glimpse into both individual bravery and collective failings in the face of catastrophe. Archibald Gracie was a prominent New York City businessman and a notable figure in society, whose own close brushes with death would deeply influence his perspective on human resilience and folly. Gracie's experiences and relationships with other passengers lend a personal urgency to his account, illuminating not just the physical perils faced aboard the ill-fated ship, but also the psychological turmoil that followed the disaster. Gracie's position as both an optimistic traveler and a victim of circumstance enriches his narrative with authenticity. Highly recommended for both enthusiasts of maritime history and literary scholars alike, "The Truth About the Titanic" is an indispensable primary source that offers insightful commentary on a pivotal moment in modern history. Readers will find themselves drawn into the gripping reality of survival and the moral quandaries faced by those who lived through one of the most infamous maritime disasters. In this enriched edition, we have carefully created added value for your reading experience: - A succinct Introduction situates the work's timeless appeal and themes. - The Synopsis outlines the central plot, highlighting key developments without spoiling critical twists. - A detailed Historical Context immerses you in the era's events and influences that shaped the writing. - A thorough Analysis dissects symbols, motifs, and character arcs to unearth underlying meanings. - Reflection questions prompt you to engage personally with the work's messages, connecting them to modern life. - Handーpicked Memorable Quotes shine a spotlight on moments of literary brilliance. - Interactive footnotes clarify unusual references, historical allusions, and archaic phrases for an effortless, more informed read.</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。

The Ismay Line The Titanic, the White Star Line and the Ismay family【電子書籍】[ Wilton J. Oldham ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>The Ismay Line charts the rise and fall of one of the most eminent British shipping companies - and tells the story of the family behind it. The founder of the White Star Line, T H Ismay, pioneered a revolutionary design of iron steamships, built for him by Harland & Wolff of Belfast. By the time of his death in 1899 he had become the most successful steamship owner in the world. He was succeeded by his son, Bruce Ismay, who in April 1912 was aboard his latest ship, Titanic, when it collided with an iceberg on its maiden voyage. Ismay survived by boarding the last lifeboat to leave the starboard side of the sinking liner: and thus began one of the greatest witch-hunts of modern times. The Ismay Line draws on many previously unpublished family diaries and correspondence and offers a robust defence of Bruce Ismay’s conduct. Originally published in 1961, the book has been out of print for many years and is now a sought-after collector’s item.</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。

<p>With time running out and the decks awash with the sea, first-class passenger Archibald Gracie was one of the last people to escape the sinking of the <em>Titanic</em>, clinging to an overturned collapsible boat before being rescued. Once safe on the <em>Carpathia</em>, Gracie immediately began writing what has become one of the definitive books on the tragedy. <em>The Truth About the Titanic</em> is Gracie’s detailed account of not just his experience the night of April 15, 1912, but that of each of the lifeboats launched that night, as well as the testimony at the inquiry that followed.

<p>The concept was simple, to link American railroads and global dominance of the seas with a railroad line through China and Russia, enter the back door of Europe, and create new royalty: the Transportation Kings. Vanderbilt, Hill, Morgan, and Harriman all pursued the grand dream. They were America’s industrial princes, poised for their greatest accomplishments, only to find that they had not considered the gauntlet awaiting them in the courts of kings and Kaisers, parliaments and congress. They awoke John Bull and helped precipitate revolution in China. They brought about the building of Lusitania and, in reaction, they owned and built the Titanic.

<p>Like many others, I have always been drawn to the story of the Titanic. It is like a fairy tale, a love story, a disaster and a tragedy all rolled into one, with stories of heroics, cowardice, desperation and separation. Disaster stories are often retold through the generations however, the Titanic story is something else. A hundred years has passed since that fateful night where she sunk, alone in the Atlantic Ocean and the story is as alive as ever. Stories have been romanticised over the years, I however, wanted to know the truth, the facts of what caused this beautiful ship to sink on her maiden voyage. What follows is what I have found out. My particular interest lies in the errors of judgement of men that make this 'natural' disaster less than natural</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。

<p>The sinking of the RMS Titanic on the night of 14/15 April 1912 remains one of history’s most tragic maritime disasters. Striking an iceberg in the North Atlantic during its maiden voyage, the ship left countless heart-breaking stories of lives lost or changed forever.</p> <p>Greater Manchester, in England’s northwest, had strong ties toTitanic, with over thirty local people involved as passengers and crew, most of whom perished. Titanic: The Greater Manchester Connections recounts their stories. John Clarke, a Manchester-born band member, famously played on as the ship sank. Joseph Hyman, a Russian Jewish passenger who survived, later opened a kosher delicatessen in Manchester named "Titanic's."</p> <p>Chemist Adolphe Saalfeld carried 65 perfume samples aboard to break into the American market. Although he survived, his perfumes were lost until recovered in 1985. Thomas Hart missed the voyage after his discharge book was stolen, inspiring the card game scene in James Cameron’s 1997 film Titanic.</p> <p>The captains of two ships involved in the aftermathーthe Carpathia and Californianーhailed from Bolton. The Titanic tragedy offers a glimpse into late Victorian and Edwardian society. Though the ship rests at the bottom of the Atlantic, its stories and legends continue to captivate worldwide.</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。

Titanic【電子書籍】[ Filson Young ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>This was one of the first books to appear after the sinking of the Titanic, published just 37 days after the disaster, and despite the haste it is one of the most stylish and well-written of the early works. Its author, Filson Young, was a respected journalist who had already used his columns in the London Saturday Review and the Pall Mall Gazette to call for better safety at sea, and for all ships to have properly-manned radios. Having sailed the Atlantic himself, and knowing several of the passengers on board the doomed liner, his book combines an imaginative telling of the first few days on board, with a vivid account of the sinking based on early survivor interviews. In 1932 the BBC asked Filson to dramatise the book for radio, but a public outcry forced them to reconsider: even after twenty years, his recreation of the sinking was still too powerful for many of their audience.</p> <p>This ebook edition features:<br /> ? 15 photographs<br /> ?

Titanic【電子書籍】[ Rupert Matthews ]

<p><em>'Goodbye Miss Young. Good luck to you and don't forget to remember me to the folks back home.'</em><br /> <strong>Major Archibald Butt</strong> (1865-1912)</p> <p>The sinking of the <em>Titanic</em> on her maiden voyage in 1912 is one of the most dramatic stories in maritime history. The largest passenger steamship in the world, fitted with more advanced safety features than any of her rivals, she was proclaimed to be virtually unsinkable.</p> <p>More than 1,500 people perished when the Titanic went down - many from drowning but more from hypothermia on one of the coldest but most beautiful April nights anyone could remember in the North Atlantic. The survivors of the disaster brought home tales of heroism and cowardice, of calmness and panic, of honour and disgrace.</p> <p>Just how and why the <em>Titanic</em> foundered on such a beautiful April evening is the subject of this fascinating book. Author Rupert Matthews explores witness accounts and evidence gathered at the inquiries, along with more recent discoveries, to piece together a complete picture of what happened on that fateful night in 1912.</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。

An Unsinkable Titanic Every Ship its own Lifeboat【電子書籍】[ Walker ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>An Unsinkable Titanic: Every Ship its own Lifeboat by J. Bernard Walker is a compelling exploration into the tragic sinking of the RMS Titanic and a passionate call for reform in maritime safety. Published in the wake of the 1912 disaster, the book delves into the technical, structural, and human factors that contributed to the catastrophe, challenging the widespread belief in the ship’s invincibility. Walker, an experienced engineer and editor, meticulously analyzes the design flaws, inadequate lifeboat provisions, and the misplaced confidence in watertight compartments that led to the loss of over 1,500 lives. Drawing on firsthand accounts, official reports, and his own expertise, Walker critiques the prevailing attitudes of shipbuilders, owners, and regulators, arguing that the tragedy was not merely an accident but the result of preventable errors and complacency. He advocates for a radical shift in maritime engineering: every ship should be designed as its own lifeboat, capable of remaining afloat and safe even in the event of severe damage. Through detailed diagrams, technical explanations, and persuasive reasoning, Walker outlines practical solutions for ship construction, emergency preparedness, and passenger safety. The book is both a historical document and a visionary treatise, offering readers a rare glimpse into early 20th-century maritime thought and the urgent debates that followed the Titanic disaster. Walker’s writing is clear, authoritative, and deeply human, emphasizing the moral responsibility of those who design and operate passenger ships. An Unsinkable Titanic remains a significant work for anyone interested in naval architecture, maritime history, or the enduring lessons of one of the world’s most infamous shipwrecks.</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。

The Nazi Titanic The Incredible Untold Story of a Doomed Ship in World War II【電子書籍】[ Robert P. Watson ]

<p><strong>"Fascinating, insightful, and dramatic. . . .Readers will be caught up in a compelling and often startling voyage." ーHoward Blum,</strong> <em><strong>New York Times?</strong></em> <strong>bestselling author of</strong> <em><strong>The Last Goodnight</strong></em> <strong>and</strong> <em><strong>Dark Invasion</strong></em></p> <p>Built in 1927, the German ocean liner SS <em>Cap Arcona</em> was the greatest ship since the RMS <em>Titanic</em>. When the Nazis seized control in Germany, she was stripped down for use as a floating barracks and troop transport. Later, Hitler's minister, Joseph Goebbels, cast her in his epic propaganda film about the sinking of the legendary <em>Titanic</em>.</p> <p>In the Third Reich's final days, the ill-fated ship was packed with thousands of concentration camp prisoners. Without adequate water, food, or sanitary facilities, the prisoners suffered as they waited for the end of the war. Just days before Germany surrendered, the <em>Cap Arcona</em> was mistakenly bombed by the British Royal Air Force, and nearly all of the prisoners were killed in the last major tragedy of the Holocaust and one of history's worst maritime disasters.</p> <p>Although the British government sealed many documents pertaining to the ship's sinking, Robert P. Watson has unearthed forgotten records, conducted many interviews, and used over one hundred sources, including diaries and oral histories, to expose this story.</p> <p><em>The Nazi Titanic</em> is a riveting and astonishing account of an enigmatic ship that played a devastating role in World War II and the Holocaust.</p> <p>"A fascinating tale of a German luxury liner whose fate eerily and tragically mirrored that of the Third Reich."-Alex Kershaw, N <em>ew York Times</em>?bestselling author of <em>The Longest Winter</em></p> <p>"An incredible and tragic story." ーAlan Dershowitz, #1 *New York Times?*bestselling author of <em>The Case for Israel</em></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。

Key Figures Aboard RMS Titanic Superstars & Scapegoats【電子書籍】[ Anthony Nicholas ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Titanic. The Marilyn Monroe of ocean liners. A sleek, sultry beauty, taken out way before her time. A kind of 21st century Flying Dutchman, with interiors by Cesar Ritz, still striving to achieve the waters of a port she can never reach. Fuelled by a subtle mixture of horror, fascination and sheer, fatal glamour, she surges heedlessly across the still, starlit calm of our collective subconscious, hell bent on achieving her chilling, near midnight rendezvous with her killer. Titanic is a brilliantly lit stage, carrying her cast of exotic, terminally endangered extras toward an abyss at once both unfathomable and inconceivable. Here's where any similarity with any other tome about the Titanic ends. For the first time ever, a succession of key characters and groups of individuals come to the fore. Centre stage, over seventeen chapters, we meet the men whose decisions, actions and omissions combined like some slow burning powder trail to trigger a final, cataclysmic conclusion; the foundering, in mid Atlantic, of the biggest moving object ever seen on the face of the planet. One by one, a series of individuals take a bow. Seemingly omnipotent owners and hugely experienced ship's officers. Engineers and designers. Would be rescuers and embattled wireless operators. We meet them as individuals, not supermen. Their histories, backgrounds and life experiences are assessed for the first time ever, putting their actions on the night that Titanic sank into a context, a light as stark as that of the distress rockets, arcing into the sky…</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。
