Beschreibung
This exquisitely illustrated story of quiet bravery tells in rich detail how the little ship Carpathia saved 705 passengers of the Titanic from the icy waters of the North Atlantic.
With the approaching 110-year anniversary of the ship’s sinking,
Rescuing Titanic shares a unique connection with the story of the ship; having been written and illustrated by
debut Northern Irish artist, Flora Delargy, whose grandfather and great grandfather both worked in the Belfast Shipyards where the Titanic was built.
In the middle of the night, the
Carpathia received a distress call from the sinking
Titanic. The intrepid little ship heroically changed course and headed straight into the frozen sea to help save as many people as it could.
Follow the Carpathia as it risks everything to navigate remote, treacherous ice fields in the dark and
come to the rescue of passengers on the world-famous ocean liner.
Along the journey, you will learn all about
Morse code,
navigation tools, the different
roles of the crew,
how the ships found each other, and
by-the-minute details of exactly what happened on this cold and fateful night.
The illustrations set the scene and take the reader into the frozen eerie night in the North Atlantic. Beautiful
full-bleed illustration and vignettes give great detail about how everyone on the ship made their own contribution and showed true bravery.
Rescuing Titanic shows that
a glimmer of hope can be found even in great tragedy and that
heroes are not always big and mighty, but can also be small and unassuming.
This is the debut book in the
Hidden Histories series, which explores with beautiful illustrations and vivid details the untold parts of stories we thought we knew.
