The Sinking of the Titanic - Mistake or Mystery? - Part 1

The most well known of these cruise liners was the infamous RMS Titanic. In the first part of this two part series, we delve into the depths of the history and single fateful voyage of the Titanic, focusing on the steps along the way that led to the dreadful sinking.
