Welcome to

Titanic and co

 

 

This site is dedicated to all those who lost their lives onboard the Titanic that fateful night.

It began in 1907 over a calm and relaxed dinner but ended in panic.

The RMS Titanic was proclaimed "unsinkable" as God himself could not sink her and yet on April 15 1912, the Titanic struck and iceberg and sank taking with her 1500 people to their peril.

Over the years many people have written books, films, plays etc to illustrate the disaster. Most works have a haunting theme. Human error and arrogance were the direct cause of the disaster. It is the writers aim to highlight the main events of the voyage............
