Titanic Facts
There is a world of
Titanic facts at your disposal. The Titanic is one of the most fascinating and enduring stories of all time. What is it which makes Titanic such a subject of fascination for so many people around the world? Perhaps it is the very nature of the story itself. The
world’s largest ship, on its
maiden voyage and carrying some of the world’s richest people has a freak accident on her maiden voyage with a catastrophic loss of life.
Loss of Life
Hundreds of lives were lost amongst the poorer
passengers on the ship, many of them sailing to the new world to find better opportunities for themselves and their families. If the story of Titanic were produced as a work of fiction, people would have difficulty believing that such a widespread tragedy could happen. Within that rope of broader story there are threads of smaller stories which weave together to produce a fascinating tale.

story of Titanic and want to find out more facts about how and why she was built, the
