My favorite books about the Titanic are both written by Walter Lord - This is one of them! The two when put together are the most informative and thrilling accounts of the Titanic that I know of. "The Night Lives On" has so many details packed into its pages that it is hard to believe that one author could write it all. The story of the ship, her passengers, the survivors... everything you wish to know about the Titanic is in here! Walter Lord's thoughts and information are so helpful during an intense research project. Read it!

Wonderful
First read Walter Lord's 1955 A NIGHT TO REMEMBER, then read THE NIGHT LIVES ON, an updating of the earlier work that helps consolidate the experience of Titanic survivors. Both are highly recommended.

Must read
This book is a "must read" for any Titanic enthusiast or history buff. The author, who practically devoted his entire life to the tragic liner and her survivors wrote this sequel to his 1955 legendary "A Night to Remember" 31 years later. In it he analyzes the story, the ship and the collision from different perspectives. An interesting book that is easy to read and follow. Lord became close to several surviving passengers, often comminicating with them and their children about how their lives were affected by that epic tragedy.
