Titanic: the official story

This talk marks the ninty-eighth anniversary of the sinking of the
Titanic. Using documents from The National Archives, James Cronan
will take you through the history of the ship, from its
construction and launch to its fateful end. James Cronan is a
records specialist in diplomatic and colonial records. His interest
in all things Titanic stems from the fact that his
great-grandfather was a crewman on board the stricken ship. He has
worked at The National Archives for 17 years, at Chancery Lane, the
Family Records Centre and Kew.
