<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>The classic minute-by-minute account of the sinking of the "Titanic" is now offered in a 50th anniversary edition with a new Introduction by Nathaniel Philbrick, author of "In the Heart of the Sea and Sea of Glory."<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>The classic minute-by-minute account of the sinking of the <i>Titanic</i>, in a 50th anniversary edition with a new introduction by Nathaniel Philbrick</b> <p/> First published in 1955, <i>A Night to Remember</i> remains a completely riveting account of the <i>Titanic</i>'s fatal collision and the behavior of the passengers and crew, both noble and ignominious. Some sacrificed their lives, while others fought like animals for their own survival. Wives beseeched husbands to join them in lifeboats; gentlemen went taut-lipped to their deaths in full evening dress; and hundreds of steerage passengers, trapped below decks, sought help in vain. <p/>Available for the first time in trade paperback and with a new introduction for the 50th anniversary edition by Nathaniel Phil-brick, author of <i>In the Heart of the Sea</i> and <i>Sea of Glory</i>, Walter Lord's classic minute-by-minute re-creation is as vivid now as it was upon first publication fifty years ago. From the initial distress flares to the struggles of those left adrift for hours in freezing waters, this semicentennial edition brings that moonlit night in 1912 to life for a new generation of readers.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Stunning . . . one of the most exciting books of this or any year." --<i>The New York Times</i> <p/>"A magnificent job of re-creative chronicling, enthralling from the first word to the last." --<i>The Atlantic Monthly</i> <p/>"Seamless and skillful . . . it's clear why this is many a researcher's <i>Titanic</i> bible." --<i>Entertainment Weekly</i></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>Walter Lord</b> was the author of several bestselling works of history, including <i>Day of Infamy</i>, a re-creation of the day of the attack on Pearl Harbor.
