Book Synopsis RMS Olympic by : Mark Chirnside

Download or read book RMS Olympic written by Mark Chirnside. This book was released on 2015-09-07. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sitting around a dining-room table in 1907, the owners of the White Star Line discussed their competition to the newly-built Cunard liners, Lusitania and Mauretania. From that smoke-filled room came the first designs of three White Star superliners. Olympic and Titanic were to be built at Harland & Wolff's yard in Belfast, while the third ship was to follow after construction had been completed on the first pair of sisters. The only ship to make a return passenger voyage was Olympic and she was always overshadowed by her younger sisters. This is the definitive story of Titanic's sister RMS Olympic. First published in 2004 to critical acclaim, this new edition presents a revised expanded work from one the most successful maritime authors at work in Britain today.

Book Synopsis RMS OLYMPIC by : John Hamer

Download or read book RMS OLYMPIC written by John Hamer. This book was released on 2013-11-21. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: So what was the real story behind the sinking of RMS Titanic, one of two almost identical twin sister ships, in 1912?... "The Titanic didn't sink! The ship that went down in the North Atlantic in 1912 was the Olympic, the Titanic's sister ship... Both ships were owned by the White Star Line, which was part of J.P. Morgan's investment empire. The company had reason and opportunity to switch the identities of these luxury liners in order to commit massive insurance fraud. In this book, John Hamer theorizes that, instead of selling her for scrap and taking a huge loss, which might have bankrupted the Morgan venture, the decision was made to switch identities, destroy the Olympic (now posing as the Titanic), collect the insurance, and continue operating the Titanic profitably (now posing as the Olympic). You'll be amazed at how much compelling evidence there is to support this conclusion." G Edward Griffin, author and researcher.

Book Synopsis Titanic or Olympic: Which Ship Sank? by : Steve Hall

Download or read book Titanic or Olympic: Which Ship Sank? written by Steve Hall. This book was released on 2012-02-28. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Titanic is one of the most famous maritime disasters of all time, but did the Titanic really sink on the morning of 15 April 1912? Titanic's older sister, the nearly identical Olympic, was involved in a serious accident in September 1911 – an accident that may have made her a liability to her owners the White Star Line. Since 1912 rumours of a conspiracy to switch the two sisters in an elaborate insurance scam has always loomed behind the tragic story of the Titanic. Could the White Star Line have really switched the Olympic with her near identical sister in a ruse to intentionally sink their mortally damaged flagship in April 1912, in order to cash in on the insurance policy? Laying bare the famous conspiracy theory, world-respected Titanic researchers investigate claims that the sister ships were switched in an insurance scam and provide definitive proof for whether it could - or could not - have happened.
