The notorious shipwrecks highlighted in this graphic nonfiction volume include King Henry VIII's flagship Mary Rose, the "unsinkable" steamship RMS Titanic, and the German battleship Bismarck. The details surrounding the hunt, discovery, and raising of the Mary Rose, the last moments of the Titanic, and the sinking of the Bismarck and the 1989 discovery of the wreck by Dr. Robert Ballard are narrated and illustrated in graphic-novel style. These richly-illustrated, high-interest stories are perfect for the reluctant reader, and the engaging, informative narratives are accessible introductions to this fascinating topic.
