How to survive the Titanic : the sinking of J. Bruce Ismay
Accused of cowardice and of dictating the Titanic's excessive speed, Ismay was the first victim of a press hate campaign.

Wilson explores Ismay's desperate need to tell his story, and to find a way of living with the consciousness of lost honor
