Gone With The Pages: Favorites Friday.....Titanic

Titanic Love Stories

By Gill Paul

Can you imagine the excitement these 13 couples must have felt to spend their honeymoon on the Titanic? This is a beautiful and sad book. The author gives you some background information on each of the couples and tells how they ended up on the Titanic. You will also find out the fate of the couples. It starts with first class and ends with third class passengers. This is my favorite of my Titanic books. You can find more about the author, Gill Paul, here.

If you enjoy documentaries I recommend Titanic: The Aftermath on Amazon Prime. This documentary is about the recovery after the sinking. I have watched many documentaries and found this one to be different. This one is about the passengers.

I have a little obsession with the Titanic....books, documentaries, and museums. So far I have visited 3 of the Titanic museums and the Molly Brown House Museum in Denver....

*Las Vegas, Nevada

*Branson, Missouri

*Pigeon Forge, Tennessee

Branson and Pigeon Forge are stand alone buildings that are designed to look like the Titanic. The Las Vegas exhibit is inside a casino/hotel. Pigeon Forge was my favorite of the exhibits but they each have something different and special. Branson was my least favorite exhibit but it had an amazing display to show which lifeboat each passenger was placed into. When you enter the exhibit you will receive a ticket with a name and information about a passenger. At the end of the exhibit you can see if your passenger survived. Below are some photos of the outside of the exhibits. There is no photography inside the buildings.

The Molly Brown House Museum in Denver, Colorado is also a great place to visit. I was fortunate to visit a few years ago when my husband had a business trip to Denver.

Molly Brown was born in Hannibal, Missouri. I'm hoping to visit her birth home someday soon.
