John Rowland, a disgraced former naval officer sunk in drink, serves as a deckhand on the Titan, the largest ship afloat and believed unsinkable. Racing across the North Atlantic on an April night with too few lifeboats, she meets an iceberg, and Rowland’s ordeal, and his struggle to save a small child, begins.
Read today for its uncanny foreshadowing of the Titanic, this edition also gathers several of Robertson’s other sea stories. Download the free EPUB.
