Revisit Titanic with Explorer Robert D. Ballard and Investigate New Threats to the Famous Wreck! This Book Reveals... * The unique conditions of weather and sea that contributed to the fateful collision. * The reason Titanic had a lifeboat capacity that was ridiculously inadequate for the number of people aboard. * A familiar magazine's 1914 prediction that the children of Titanic's dead would see pictures of the wreck. * The influence of a maritime nuclear disaster on efforts to find and study Titanic. * An odd twist of law that prevented Titanic's discoverers from protecting the wreck against fortune hunters-and how that action haunts them today.Michael Sweeney is the author of 'Return to Titanic', published 2004 under ISBN 9780792272885 and ISBN 0792272889.
