42. A Night to Remember (1955) by Walter Lord

This week, two Titanic lovers? experts? enthusiasts? get together as Hannah Randolph sits down and talks with us about Walter Lord's nonfictional account, A Night to Remember. A Night to Remember is the definitive retelling of the tragic night that The Titanic slipped beneath the waves. Lord uses passengers and officers first hand accounts to reconstruct the horror of what happened in the North Atlantic. We're asking the tough questions. Was the Titanic disaster the end of out-and-out blatant classism? What's our opinion on the break-up of the ship during the sinking? Was the Californian at blame to any extent? We talk about these and more in this episode.Thanks for listening!Resources for this episdoe:A Night to Remember by Walter LourdA Deadman's Books theme song: Surfing! by automaticbananas#books #booktube #bookpod #literature #lit #nonfiction #titanic #whitestarline #oceanliners #disaster #ocean #narrative Hosted on Acast.
