The Icy Grave

on BBC Radio 4 FM

On 10 April 1912 the Titanic sailed her maiden and only voyage, to New York. Four days later she struck an iceberg and smashed into the ocean floor. Peter Rawlings has compiled eyewitness accounts of survivors; a contemporary view by Commodore John Wacher of the navigational difficulties experienced by the captain and his crew; and a description of his discovery of the wreck by oceanographer
Dr Robert Ballard , to mark the 80th anniversary of the tragedy.
