' My name is Peter Grant, & until January I was a probationary constable in that mighty army for justice known to all right-thinking people as the Metropolitan Police Service, & to everyone else as the Filth.

Now I'm a Detective Constable & a trainee wizard, & my world has become somewhat more complicated.

What more can be said about the ill-fated RMS Titanic, a ship that has achieved almost mythological status throughout the world?

In truth, not a lot. But what about her sister ship, the railway stations & the boat trains that served her, the vessels that sent ice warnings & those that responded to her distress calls?

Here Patrick Mylon explores many of the lesser-known aspects of Titanic’s legacy, telling the wider story that developed around the disaster. Using rare & previously unpublished images from his collection of White Star memorabilia, he places fresh emphasis on the vessels, events & locations Titanic encountered during her short life.
