A lesson in life

This is an amazing listen. I was surprised that Lawrence Beesley described people as calm on the night of the sinking. And for those that survived, the gratitude they felt for their rescuers and for being alive, is a lesson to us all. Beautifully written.

Bad narrator

The narrator ruins a great book. A shame as this book is a classic by Laurence Beesley Titanic survivor.
