“’It was an event that made the world awake and rub its eyes.’
Said surviving passenger Lawrence Beesley. The greatest
most majestic ship in the world struck an iceberg in the North
Atlantic and sank within hours. This was the biggest event of
the Twentieth Century…. It was the beginning of the end for
the Titanic, the death of a dream.”
