Titanic: the Ship That Never Sank?

Robin Gardiner


The author believes it was not the Titanic but her sister ship, the Olympic, that went down. The Olympic had been so badly damaged by a collision with a Navy ship that the owners and builders agreed it wouldn't last long. They tried to sue the Navy but with no success. This book contends that they then hatched a plot to switch the identity of the two ships and to sink the Olympic at the next available opportunity, while avoiding any loss of life. Gardiner presents lots of circumstantial evidence for this story but very little physical evidence. Rory was not entirely convinced by the evidence presented but thinks it could have been true.
