   I just read a posting by someone who wanted to know about more books
about the Titanic. I can think of authors,such as Col. Gracie who wrote
a book right after the disaster, in fact if I recall It is not totally
complete. He died before he could finish it.  However It was published
and can be found in some libraries.

 2nd Officer Lightoller wrote a book in the 30s

Perhaps the most unusual book written about the Titanic is the first one
published after the disaster (something like 2 months later)  It is based
on all the newspaper reports. (which were not very accurate) And it makes 
facinating reading, because it's just so bad!!
