Exploring the Britannic: The life, last voyage and wreck of Titanic's tragic twin

Great book, took two tries to deliver. 1st package ne Cc er received but says picked up by delivery person. 2nd book delivered to wrong address. My address was very clear!

This is one of the most engaging books of a ship wreck I have ever read. The author is the current owner of the wreck and he was able to meld the history of the ships construction, sinking, and discovery into an amazing story. Incredible photographs and portraits are included. The book fills in any gaps created through the various television documentaries. I great read for fans of history and underwater archeology.

A great history of the Titanic's equally tragic sister, "Britannic" - She was never to carry a single paying passenger and never to reach New York, during the "Great War" she was converted into a hospital ship and was sunk by a mine - and Simon Mills tells her story - along with a lot of great photographs and plans of the ship. Recommend it to all of you who are interested in maritime history.

Written by the Briton who literally owns the wreck, this book is exceptional both in the information it provides and its presentation. Britannic's full story, from inception to her loss after 351 days of service to exploration of the wreck are all covered with authoritative text and nearly 250 photos, about 200 of which are in color. A remarkable and wonderful tribute to Titanic's little-known sister ship.

I got it book for 7 years old boy, who loves to learn all about white star line ships! He loves this book! It was his best Christmas present, he reads every day. 😊 Thank you!

My son loves ships and great read for him.

I got this for my daughter who loves the white star history and loved it she even wants to be a nurse just like her hero Violet jessop

I did dive the wreck in 2017. I really enjoyed this book, understanding more about the ship itself and the author quest with her. Wonderful pics and blueprints and stories.

Muybonteresante, muchas fotos desconocidas, lo recomiendo

This book is very helpful for modelling and historical information and provides good insights into the ship and the problems it faced and what it is like today. Highly recommended for all interested in knowing more.

There’s something of a lack of books on either of Titanic's sisters since she took all the fame by sinking so early in her career, so I would place this book as most likely the best comprehensive book on Britannic for most readers, especially if you want to learn about the wreck and it’s important story about how it answers many questions about the sinking. The first half of the book is all about the ship and it’s career, from building and the important lessons learnt from her sisters, to each of the voyages she made as a hospital ship, and her obvious demise. It goes into great detail on all this information, with ship plans included in fold outs, and includes accounts from people on board. The sinking is well documented, and it’s unfortunate there were any deaths at all, as it was completely avoidable, as all deaths were caused by the ships spinning propellers. The next half is all written in first person by the ship wrecks owner, who is the author. It’s a very interesting story, sometimes gets a little unrelated to the ship itself at times, but it’s a great story and very engaging. The many dive expeditions are well accounted and very interesting, with many great photos from the wreck. The search to prove the reason of the sinking and why she sank so quickly is successful and puts a purpose behind all the dives and money spent. Overall a very good book, for people interested the Britannic, liners in general, the First World War at sea, wrecks or diving. Great book

Very informative
