“Titanic – a night of ice” • What did the ship builders claim Titanic to be? • Why did John Coffey leave the ship at Queenstown? • Why was John Jacob Astor IV the subject of a scandal in the U.S.? • Why did Michel Navratil sail under an assumed name? • Who were the “Titanic Orphans”? • Who was Henry Morley accompanying whilst his wife was in the U.K. • Why did the Californian captain ignore the distress rockets? • Which ship went to the rescue?
Views: 816 | Enquiries: 1I am third generation of Cunard seafarer, my last ship was QE2 where I was one of the Pursers and met some of the stars featured in my QE2 talk. On leaving Cunard I served in the Royal Naval Reserve and more recently conducted tours of Cunard and P&O ships whilst they were in Southampton, sadly because of the pandemic these have now ceased.
I have been delivering talks, both live and via Zoom, for 6 years now to various organisations such as U3A, Probus, W.I. and many more. Prior to this I was Training Manager delivering training modules to various groups.
