Frederick Davidson
Tracking down other survivors for their stories and attending court hearings to obtain the official record, Colonel Gracie filled in the details of his account, struggling to complete it in spite of illness. Largely due to the effects of his ordeal and exposure in the frigid Atlantic, he finally succumbed on December 4, 1912. His book was published in 1913 to universal acclaim and remains one of the most vivid first-hand accounts of the disaster.

That part, quite lengthy, does drag on a bit, but as this was written by a survivor in the same year as the sinking, it is a very credible and interesting account.

I didn't particularly care for the narrator. I found his mannerisms off-putting.

It is interesting to compare what we know as fact today, i.e., the breaking apart of the ship, to that of eyewitness accounts.
The rating would be higher were it not for the narrator. He is completely dry and unemotional—he could have been reading a cookbook.

Would you try another book from Colonel Archibald Gracie and/or Frederick Davidson?
maybeWhat didn’t you like about Frederick Davidson’s performance?
He keeps salivating and we seem to hear the pages turn. His voice sometimes is too uneven - we can't hear the end of sentences.You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?
The true storiesAny additional comments?
Despite being a fan of the story of the Titanic, I didn't finish the book. I couldn't; the narration being so bad (inadequate).I sure hope the book tasted good!
