TITANIC!

Summary:
The Titanic hit an iceburg and sank in the night of april 14, 1912.This book is not a story of the well-known movie " Titanic". In this book, describing why did the titanic sink so quickly, why did so many people die and what are the stories of all those people, young and old, rich and poor etc.
The unbelievable facts are written very realistcally.



Comment:
The Titanic is believed as a "Unsinkabel Ship", so when Titanic sank, people didn't believe and understand what happened to the Titanic and their family, friends and lovers...
That's so sad, deplorable and disconsolate tragedy I think.
