Many books were produced in the wake of the sinking of the Titanic. This contains short stories and illustrations about the ship's voyage. This book was bought by relatives of the contributor who emigrated to Dakota. The contributor's parents went out on the Mauretainia in 1912, the same year the Titanic sank, to join the relatives, but only stayed 10 months as life was so hard. They returned to Leeds in 1913, with this book of stories.
