HOME FROM THE SEA / TITANIC HERO THE LOSS OF THE TITANIC The Autobiography of Captain Rostron of the Carpathia, the Man Who Rescued the Titanic Survivors Arthur ROSTRON (1931) - Amberley Publishing (2011) - Spitfire Publishers LTD (2018)

Home from the Sea was first published in 1931, the year Arthur Rostron retired after more than forty years on the high seas. His autobiography had been eagerly awaited as Rostron had been captain of the ocean liner CARPATHIA and acted decisively on the night of 14/15 April 1912 racing to the rescue of the 705 survivors of the TITANIC disaster. Although he gave extensive witness evidence at the British and American enquiries it was in this book that he delivered the full story of his involvement in the rescue. This new illustrated edition features many rare images of the rescue of the TITANIC survivors. Arthur Rostron's book The Loss of the Titanic is a chapter from his autobiography Home from the Sea.
