Rescuing Titanic: A true story of quiet bravery in the North Atlantic
Description
Rescuing Titanic is a beautifully illustrated book that commemorates the 110-year anniversary of the Titanic's sinking by telling the story of the Carpathia, the ship that heroically changed course to rescue 705 passengers from the icy waters of the North Atlantic. Written and illustrated by Northern Irish artist Flora Delargy, whose ancestors worked in the shipyards where the Titanic was built, the book provides an in-depth look at Morse code, navigation tools, crew roles, and the minute-by-minute events of that fateful night. The illustrations vividly depict the eerie, frozen night and highlight the bravery and contributions of everyone on board the Carpathia. Rescuing Titanic is not only a story of tragedy but also of hope and the unassuming heroes that emerge in times of need, making it the debut book in the Hidden Histories series.
