A bestseller both in the U.S. and U.K. now available in paperback. This biography succeeds due to its unique authenticity and wrenching firsthand account of that unforgettable tragedy. Jessop served as a stewardess for first-class passengers aboard the TITANIC, and, four years later, was a nurse on the ill-fated hospital ship BRITANNIC when it struck a mine and sank to the bottom of the Aegean Sea. This unique and riveting eyewitness account of both disasters, and fascinating tales of life at sea make this a powerful memoir that could only come from a survivor. Due sept
