Book Reviews of Building the Titanic: An Epic Tale of the Creation of History's Most Famous Ocean Liner

Book Review: An outstanding survey of its actual making and includes plenty of vintage black & white photos & illustrations rich in detail
Summary: 5 Stars

Plenty of books have been published on the sinking of the Titanic, but this is the first detailed account of how the ship was designed and constructed and provides a haunting view of how it was made and promoted. Where competitors focus on its demise or its voyage, BUILDING THE TITANIC: AN EPIC TALE OF THE CREATION OF HISTORY'S MOST FAMOUS OCEAN LINER is an outstanding survey of its actual making and includes plenty of vintage black and white photos and illustrations rich in detail.
