From an acclaimed biographer, a riveting account of what happened to the survivors of the Titanicto be published in the leadup to the 100th anniversary of the ships sinking.April 14, 2012 will mark the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic. While much has been written about the great ship, her shocking demise, and those who perished, very little has been devoted to the hundreds of survivors. In Shadow of the Titanic, Andrew Wilson offers a moving look at how their lives were affected by living through this catastrophic event.For the first time ever, those who lived to tell the tale reveal how they coped in the aftermath. Using archival research and interviews with family members, Wilson offers a unique take on this fascinating story.

Some reputations were destroyed, and some survivors were so psychologically damaged that they took their own lives years later.From the famous survivors like Bruce Ismay and Madeline Astorwho became a bride, a widow, and a mother all within a yearto lesser known survivors Dorothy Gibson and the Navartil brotherswho were traveling under assumed names because they were being abducted by their fatherShadow of the Titanic offers a host of astonishing stories that add an important new dimension to our understanding of this legendary disaster.
