To THE MEMORY OF THE CHIEF ENGINEER OF THE TITANIC , JOHN BELL, AND HIS STAFF OF THIRTY-THREE ASSISTANTS, WHO STOOD AT THEIR POSTS IN THE ENGINE- AND BOILER-ROOMS TO THE VERY LAST, AND WENT DOWN WITH THE SHIP, THIS WORK IS DEDICATED
It is the object of this work to show that, in our eagerness to make the ocean liner fast and luxurious, we have forgotten to make her safe.
