SEQUEL TO THE BEST-SELLING EXPLORING THE TITANIC
History / Science
“The stories in Ghost Liners will be devoured by students, history buffs and all who are fascinated by human tragedy.” — School Library Journal
Here is the sequel to the phenomenal bestseller, Exploring the Titanic, which has almost 2 million copies in print. Robert Ballard was the first person ever to see the wreck of the ill-fated Titanic. In a tiny submarine, he descended two and a half miles beneath the sea and explored the legendary ship in painstaking detail. Now Dr. Ballard takes young readers on an astonishing deep-sea expedition to the Titanic and other lost ships — the mysterious Lusitania, the tragic Empress of Ireland and Andrea Doria, and the Titanic's sister ship, Britannic. Magnificent paintings by renowned marine artist Ken Marschall plus astonishing underwater photographs and rare archival images make each page of Ghost Liners fascinating to look at and gripping to read.
