The book has an illustration of the lobby of the Titanic, I compared it with a real picture and it was extremely similar. Lauren Tarshis (author of the I Survived the Sinking of the Titanic) included Thomas Andrews, the builder of the ship, into the story. In the back of my version of the book the author says “All the facts about the Titanic are true, but the main characters came from my imagination. George, Phoebe, Aunt Daisy, Marco and Enzo are based on people I learned about while researching the Titanic.” When I tried to find real passengers relating to the main characters I did not find anything though.
According to “A History In Numbers” by Dave Fowler, only 706 people aboard the Titanic survived the terrible accident, while the other 1,529 were taken down with the ship. Many people believed the iceberg was to blame for the sinking of the ship; however, the problems surrounding the ship began long before the ship set sail. “R.M.S Titanic” by Hanson W. Baldwin revealed that the crew was so confident in the ship’s inability to sink that they did not even pack enough lifeboats in case of an emergency. Furthermore, the captain and crew neglected to practice many safety drills that could have possibly saved many lives. The Titanic was doomed once the captain and crew set foot on the ship because of the arrogant aura they carried which resulted in the confusion and lack of resources that were obtainable during the sinking to many of the passengers including Master Harold Victor Goodwin and his family.
