{"product_id":"titanic-23","title":"Titanic","description":"In his famous book A Night to Remember, historian Walter Lord described the sinking of the Titanic as 'the last night of a small town'. Now, a hundred years after her sinking, John Welshman reconstructs the fascinating individual histories of twelve of the inhabitants of this tragically short-lived floating town. \n\nThey include members of the crew; passengers in First, Second, and Third Class; women and men; adults and children; rich and poor. Among them are a ship's Captain, a Second Officer, an Assistant Wireless Operator; a Stewardess, an amateur military historian, a governess, a teacher, a domestic servant, a mother, and three children. What were their earlier histories? Who survived, and why, and who perished? And what happened to these people in the years after 1912? \n\nTitanic: The Last Night of a Small Town answers all these questions and more, while offering a minute-by-minute depiction of events aboard the doomed liner through the eyes of a broad and representative cross-section of those who sailed in her - both those who survived and those who didn't.","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54228554809688,"sku":"9780198786498","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780198786498_a6d523f0-e049-4001-bcf0-58af6ce28604.jpg?v=1778526048","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/titanic-23","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
