Tyne to Titanic: The Story of Rescue Ship Carpathia

(Newcastle Libraries & Information Service, 1998)

Tyne to Titanic tells the story of Carpathia, the Tyne-built ship which rescued the survivors of the Titanic disaster in 1912. Launched at the famous Wallsend Shipyard, Carpathia achieved worldwide fame when she steamwed into the night, braving icebergs, in answer to the stricken liner’s distress call. It is a story of skilled seamanship, kindness and compassion in the face of high tragedy.
