I finished A Night to Remember by Walter Lord in three days. I couldn't put it down. This is the difinitive book on the fatal iceberg collision and tragic sinking of the Titanic that occured in the late night and early morning hours of April 14th and 15th in 1912. Well-researched and rich with detail and true personal accounts, this book is engrossing.

I was truly touched and captivated by the stories of heroism and chivalry born and told from the events of that fateful and bitterly cold night. The tales of pure animalistic survival and the effects of class division and how it played a massive part in who lived and who perished. The mistakes of the Titanic that were never again to be repeated.

The way that this story enthralled the entire world then and still does to this day. Highly recommend this read.
