From the moments when the captain made the first in a series of incredible blunders, through a harrowing night of mindless panic and deadly peril, in which rescuers and passengers improvised a massive evacuation and ordinary men emerged as heroes, BRYAN BURROUGH reconstructs an epic fight for survival—in which all too many would perish
