London: Philip Allan & Co Ltd, 1929. Cloth. Very Good. 7" by 4.5". None. The second edition of this important and gripping account of the sinking of the Titanic by one of the survivors. The second edition ('Nautilus Library' edition). First published in 1912. In the publisher's original cloth. Lacking rear free endpaper. This gripping autobiographical work was written just nine weeks after the sinking disaster by one of its survivors, Lawrence Beesley.

The lifeboat was not yet full when Beesley came near to it, and as there were no women or children in sight Beesley was instructed to jump onto the boat. After the disaster Beesley was urged by honourable lawyers and editors of newspapers to write an accurate and gripping account of the disaster for the public, who had understandably been ardently following the news of the sinking. Thus Beesley here offers an accurate and detailed account of the disaster. In the… Read More
