Titanic: The Legend, myths and folklore.
£12.05
As the pride of White Star Line – RMS Titanic sank beneath the surface of the freezing North-Atlantic Ocean, the story of Titanic was born.
That story has become full of stories within itself. Full of myths. Many of the myths included in the Titanic story have been realized and many questions answered since the wreck site was discovered on September 1, 1985.
Unfortunately, stories that have been retold over the generations have clouded over what really happened, making the Titanic story a legend, full of myths and folklore.
Titanic: the Legend, Myths and Folklore, attempts to unravel those stories that over time has created the legend, attempting to present the actual accounts of the Titanic disaster, while pointing out the myths and folklore that persist in literature written since 1912 and the movies that insist on including the myths to present a more interesting story that is:- Titanic.
Description
About the Author
Bruce Alpine is a science writer based out of the Kapiti Coast in New Zealand. Renowned for his ability to explain complex and technical issues in a way that is both easy to understand and fun to read, Bruce has gained a small but devoted audience since he published his first book, A History Of Life On Earth. Born in Wellington, New Zealand in 1958, Bruce was the only son of a former college instructor. His mother was born in Britain and immigrated to New Zealand when she was 21. She encouraged Bruce and his three sisters to read often and study hard in school, and when it became clear that Bruce had an affinity for science, she encouraged that too. Bruce’s key interests revolve around the Earth and the life that inhabits it: how it sprang up, how it’s come to be the way it is, how it functions now, etc. In addition to his work as a writer, Bruce is employed in the health support industry. He has two children, one son and one daughter, both of whom are grown up.
