In this sequel to "Exploring the Titanic", the author returns to the fabled wreck and then takes the reader on a guided tour of other ghostly ships - "Britannic", "Lusitania", "Andrea Doria" he has explored. Photographs, archival images and paintings accompany the text.
Robert Ballard was the first person to ever see the eerie wreck of the lost "Titanic". In a tiny submarine he descended two and a half miles beneath the sea and explored the lost ship in detail. Here he takes readers on an astonishing deep-sea expedition to the "Titanic" and other legendary ships - the mysterious "Lusitania", the tragic "Empress of Ireland" and "Andrea Doria" and the "Titanic"'s giant sister, "Britannic". Through words and amazing pictures, we tour these great floating palaces as they once were and as they appear today on the ocean floor.

ROBERT D. BALLARD has earned a worldwide following for his underwater explorations. His discovery of the Titanic in 1985 created headlines around the world and his book The Discovery of the Titanic has sold over one million copies. His other books include Lost Liners, Lost Ships of the Guadalcanal, Titanic: An illustrated history and his autobiography Explorations. KEN MARSCHALL is internationally known for his magnificent paintings of the Titanic which have appeared in such successful books as Inside the Titanic, Exploring the Titanic and On Board the Titanic. Most recently he served as historical adviser to James Cameron on his epic film, Titanic.
