The first comprehensive study into the problem of the break-up of Titanic's hull
This is the first comprehensive study into the problem of the break-up of RMS Titanic’s hull, something only recognised as having happened after 1985 when the wreck was positively identified, more than 73 years since the loss of the vessel. Expert author Eugene Nesmeyanov presents a generalised analysis of the currently available data, using both historical data (eyewitness accounts of passengers and crew members from lifeboats as well as from the surface of the water) and underwater archaeology data (photos and video filming of parts of the ship’s hull along with mapped debris fields), as well as data obtained using computer simulations. The book includes a critical analysis of the most significant theories and models of the break-up, those put forward by experts and amateurs from 1985 to the present day, and known about from the movies, documentaries, papers and publications, and finishing with the author’s own conclusions.

EUGENE NESMEYANOV inherited an interest in Titanic from his father, who was Commander of the Soviet Navy (Baltic fleet). Eugene studied Philosophy at St. Petersburg State University and worked in the State Hermitage Museum. In 2013 he published his first book on Titanic, which he worked on for more than ten years, and which became the largest written work about Titanic available in Russian (in two editions). He has published articles on Titanic across Russian and English language media and has lectured widely. He lives near St Petersburg.
