The Other Ships of the Titanic Story

Explores the vessels linked to the Titanic disaster—rescue ships, sister ships, and others that played key roles in the events of April 1912 and beyond.

On the night of 14–15 April 1912 RMS Titanic sank with the loss of around 1,500 people after striking an iceberg on her maiden voyage to New York. The tragedy captured the world’s imagination, but the full story involves many more ships than Titanic herself.

This book tells the stories of the vessels connected to that fateful night – from the sister ships and tenders that ferried passengers and mail, to the ships that sent ice warnings, the rescuers that raced to the scene, and those that later recovered the bodies of the dead. Some, like the Carpathia and Californian, became the focus of controversy, while others, such as the Mesaba, would themselves become shipwrecks in later years.

Each ship has its own remarkable tale – of war service, collisions, U-boat attacks, and peacetime voyages in an age before modern safety systems and satellite navigation. With more than 50 illustrations, The Titanic Fleet provides a fresh and absorbing look at the wider story surrounding one of the greatest maritime disasters in history.
