In September 1985 Pr. Robert D. BALLARD and a Franco-American expedition discovered the wreck of the Titanic.
Robert D. BALLARD used a specially designed remote imaging system to locate and photograph the wreck and then returned the following year to further survey and photograph the site in a three-person submarine.
This pictorial record of his expedition is filled with good quality color and black-and-white pictures. Wherever possible he compares the modern-day pictures to original ones of the Titanic.
After briefly discussing other attempts to find the Titanic, he gives a solid account of the sinking, then details the events that led to the ship's discovery.
