Very interesting and informative without the usual junk
I get a kick out of a fellow reviewer who was more or less expecting this to be the same type of "repair" manual that it typically is for cars, and I suppose that the cover design does lead one to think that. But considering the vast size of the ship and the thousands of items on it that can potentially break down, this being a repair manual would be akin to trying to squeeze a detailed history and map of the entire universe onto a single CD-ROM - and it says right on the cover that it's about the construction and design. This book is specifically for the scientific-minded person who just wants the technical details without the fluff of the personal tragedies and love stories found in the movies on the subject. This book is strictly drawings, pictures, dimensions - the numbers and letters depicting the ship's construction, no more, no less. Definitely a "guy" book - and the best one I've found yet for what I was looking for. Not a large book at 159 pages, but it is chock full of tasty engineering detail with only the briefest touch of why it became the most infamous ship of all time. I'm very glad I purchased this fine book.Read full review

Great addition to Titanic Fan's Library.
This is a great supplement for the Titanic Historian...it brings together much of the technical data from the "ShipBuilder" of the era. The casual fan will enjoy the easy to understand drawings, pictures of the ship's equipment and building specifications. I truly enjoyed the secondary or auxillary systems such as refrigeration and plumming which I had not read about. Overall five stars... a great addition to any Titanic Enthusiast's library.

A construction manual, not a repair manual
I bought this thinking it would be sort of like the 'Chilton' books are for cars, showing how to fix and repair the Olympic class ships. It's not, but it does have a lot of pictures showing how the 3 ships were constructed. Not what I was expecting but I still liked it.
