Timeline Article: TITANIC- "Too Good To Last."


The First class passengers describe the maiden voyage of Titanic to be absolutely remarkable. Their new surroundings are exquisite and the service is excellent. Old and new friends appear in their finest clothing for Sunday dinner... The best meal yet!

"The pleasure and comfort which all of us enjoyed upon this floating palace, with its extraordinary provisions for such purposes. Seemed an ominous feature to many of us, including myself, who felt it almost too good to last."
