Titanic Tales


This lavishly illustrated narrative of human interest stories from the Titanic recounts the building of the ship, its launching, its departure for the ill-fated voyage, and individual stories on notable personalities who were on the Titanic.

Titanic sank on her maiden voyage from Southampton to New York via Cobh in Ireland on 15 April 1912 with the loss of 1,522 lives. She never made it. The White Star Line were the owners of The Titanic. In the middle of the night The Titanic struck an iceberg and eventually sank.






Several photographs of the Titanic were taken by Father Browne who left the ship at Cobh before the fateful voyage.

Many of the people on board were Irish emigrants who were due to sail on another ship that was cancelled. They boarded the Titanic at Queenstown (Cobh near Cork) and many of them perished.
