100 Years of the Titanic

A century after it sank to the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean, the Titanic remains the most famous ship in the world. The Daily Mirror is marking the 100th anniversary of the disaster in April 2012 by releasing a glossy 84-page magazine that tells the whole dramatic but tragic story. Featuring rare and unseen images from the magnificent Mirror archive, plus Mirror pages and reports from the time, we recall how the ship believed to be unsinkable met with catastrophe on its maiden voyage. The human stories of those who were saved and lost are highlighted, as well as the controversy over why it sank and who was to blame. We also assess how the Titanic has continued to hold a fascination on the public, particularly through the long search for the wreck and the blockbusting film epic starring Leonardo Di Caprio and Kate Winslet.
