The Titanic and the Indifferent Stranger: The Complete Story of the Titanic and the Californian - Softcover
What kind of man ignores a desperate plea for help, and goes back to sleep? For scholars of the Titanic disaster that question has provoked divisive debate for nearly 100 years.
For, while the Titanic lay mortally wounded, the twinkling lights of another ship were seen on the horizon, so tantalisingly close that they must see the liner's rockets and come to the rescue. And yet, help eventually came from a ship much further away, and much too late to save 1500 people who died in the frigid waters.
Who was the strange ship? Why did she not come to help? With access to hitherto closed records and files, the full story of this oft overlooked affair, the so-called "Californian Incident", can now be revealed in its entirety.
