Summary

"What was life on the actual Titanic really like? This ... nonfiction book ... will make readers feel like they've traveled back in time. It covers everything from how the ship was built to what the passengers did for fun, and more, [and outlines details] such as how the anchor was so heavy that they needed to use twenty horses to lift it and how the ship's musicians continued to play as the ship sank"--Amazon.com
