The Titanic has been called "an exquisite microcosm of the Edwardian era," but that unique facet of her story has never been explored. Now historian Hugh Brewster seamlessly interweaves personal narratives of the lost liner's most fascinating people with a haunting account of her fateful maiden crossing. Gilded Lives, Fatal Voyage takes us behind the paneled doors of the ship's elegant, private suites to evoke a world both distant from and near to our own.

This is certainly an informative book, however it ranks as a least favorite Titanic book of mine. The reason I don't want to give it more than 3 stars is because of the amount of private information it gives on the passengers of the ship. I love history, especially about the Titanic, but this book went overboard (pun intended!) or prying into those defenseless people's lives.
