It was 2:00 A.M. on April 15, 1912, in the middle of the icy Atlantic Ocean. Seventeen-year-old Jack Thayer stood on the slanted deck of the RMS Titanic and weighed his options--Jump, or die, he thought. Titanic's Passengers and Crew is a compilation of compelling stories about the people aboard the luxurious--and supposedly unsinkable--ship. From wealthy first-class passengers like Jack Thayer to third-class travelers and crew, readers will meet and learn the harrowing tales of some of the most noteworthy people on the ship. Large-format color images, maps, and fact boxes bring the fear and panic the passengers and crew faced into clear, terrifying focus. Plus, "DOWNLOAD" /teaching_guides/54 a complimentary Teacher/Librarian Resource to help supplement lesson plans with activity ideas, discussion questions, and more.
