Titanic Style explores the world of fashion and dress at the time of RMS Titanicrsquo;s famous voyage. We are taken through the wardrobes of passengers and crew of all classes and ages; from the most intimate undergarments to the warm overcoats needed on that last fearful cold night. The ship was a microcosm of post-Edwardian society; in which everyone belonged to a particular class and dressed accordingly. The luxurious attire of the ladies in first class; the cream of European and American society; was changed several times a day; while the more sober and conservative clothes of the men of all ranks subtly conveyed their status; and children were dressed to enhance their social standing. We also visit the families below deck; dressed in second-hand or homemade clothes; heading for a new life in a country free of repressive class distinction. Stories and records of individual passengers and crew members are woven into the narrative to give an engaging account of what life was really like on board the worldrsquo;s most famous ocean liner.

Great songsBy LearnerBought this for my 87YO mother. so she could see if she would want to proceed with similar training for the children at church. She loves the variety songs in the book. And getting + mark from MY mother is pretty difficult! 6 of 6 people found the following review helpful. This selection awesome!By A.
