I'm sure they are featured in many books too though, you know.. those papery things we used to have to spread knowledge.. before this computtor thing kicked in.  ;D  ;D


And I found a number of those in the first 10 pages of a google picture search. Might not be the lot together, but those are out there for sure, though scattered..

I know the poop deck image shows up in Peter Davies-Garner's book.

I know that website.  A lot of great Titanic pics.  I used at least two for my novel Titanic: James Smith's Story.

Those sorts of books tend to skim the surface and only cover the disaster.

The two volumes of Titanic: The Ship Magnificent has litterally thousands of pictures, illistrations, diagrams, etc. of every known piece of information as to how Titanic was made and how she worked.

I hope to get it for Christmas ;D

Well there are three covers to the Eyewitness Titanic book. You posted one, here are the other two.

That was the one I have.

And here is the last.

Those two are exactly the same. I have read both of them. I don't know if this one is different though:
