"Loss of the Steamship 'Titanic'" is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This comprehensive report details the investigation into the tragic sinking of the RMS Titanic on April 15, 1912, after it struck an iceberg in the North Atlantic Ocean, resulting in the loss of 1,490 lives. The text meticulously examines the circumstances surrounding the disaster, including the ship's design, its journey, the collision, damages incurred, and protocols for saving those aboard. At the start of the report, the process and context for the formal investigation into the Titanic's sinking are introduced, highlighting the appointment of a wreck commissioner and the extensive inquiry that followed. It outlines the structure of the document, emphasizing topics such as the ship's specifications, the decisions made by its crew during the voyage, the consequences of the collision, and the rescue efforts. As witnesses are called and evidence is gathered, the opening sets the establishment for an in-depth examination of the factors leading to one of maritime history's most infamous disasters.
