“Titanic: The Hidden Evidence“ reveals for the first time what really happened to the Titanic and Senator William Alden Smith’s determined effort to expose the truth about it. The fast-paced, narrative non-fiction account uses actual recorded dialog and testimony whenever possible and draws heavily from firsthand accounts of survivors.

The author, John Wickman, is an aerospace engineer who established a reputation for finding the cause of engineering failures from investigating the Space Shuttle Challenger accident and other high profile cases. His book is based on eight years of research that drew on eyewitness accounts, official testimony, newspaper stories, photographs, and videos of the wreckage, as well as analysis of the Titanic’s design to provide the most accurate and complete picture of what caused the Titanic accident.
