Review:

"Stunning . . . one of the most exciting books of this or any year." -"The New York Times" "A magnificent job of re-creative chronicling, enthralling from the first word to the last." -"The Atlantic Monthly" "Seamless and skillful . . . it's clear why this is many a researcher's "Titanic" bible." -"Entertainment Weekly"

About the Author:

A graduate of Princeton University and Yale Law, Walter Lord served in England with the American intelligence service during the Second World War.

Lord was renowned for his knowledge of the Titanic catastrophe, serving as consultant to director James Cameron during the filming of Titanic. A Night to Remember was published in 1955 and has never been out of print. Walter Lord died in 2002.
