Arguably the most successful series of ships the company ever produced, they have been overlooked in maritime literature until now. Features including a gymnasium and Turkish and electric baths were trialled on Adriatic before their use on Olympic, Titanic and Britannic. Lepien, 20 October Well written with a multitude of pictures. One of the best It's nice to see lesser known liners and their interiors. Thanks again for a wonderful book. Peter Meersman, 25 October The luxury liners Adriaticthe Balticthe Cedricand the Celtic each had long and lively careers while crossing the Atlantic. The Colossus of the White Star Fleet 2. Crossings and Cruising 3. The War Years 5. A Very Enviable Reputation 6. On the Rocks 7. The Last Lap 8. These rare glimpses by those who were there give this volume a more intimate quality and a rare window in the past. Passengers Baltic & Adriatic about beauty of the ships interior, the daily routines, unusual instances that made the voyages more exciting. And these voyages were exciting from powerful storms, sea rescues, darting across the Atlantic to avoid submarines, unfortunate groundings, and final goodbyes to the scrapyard. The author takes care to describe these instances in great detail, aided by the words of people who were there. I like this one. The Adriatic had a pool, elevator, and turkish bath, among other amenities. These four ships had dining rooms with high vaulted ceilings, carved wood work and stained glass. Second and third class are not forgotten either. The author shows through photos how they are an improvement from older liners. Thumbing through the book, the reader will find rare images of the interiors, deck plans, onboard memorabilia such as menus, passenger lists, log cards, and souvenirs. Many of these items appear in a generous color section in the middle of the book. Many were taken by passengers and crew and reside in the collection of the author and other collectors. Unique photos of different parts of the ship such as the engine room will delight the technological ships fans. Amusing pictures of locals diving off the deck of the ship into the waters of Funchal or passengers gathered around Captain Marshall give it a "you-are there" feeling. Particularly rare are the ones of those of the Celtic held fast to the rocks in Sadly this would be the end of the ship and as we read, she was slowly dismantled on the spot. They are often overlooked, however, since they were not "express" liners and operated on the Liverpool-New Your route. This book goes a long way to rectifying that situation. The in-depth text describes the adventures careers of "The Big Four. Adriatic represented the epitome of ocean liner development for White Star when she entered service in She had many features that would later be installed in Olympic and Titanic. Highly Recommended! As a maritime historian and author myself, I know how difficult it is to turn up new material and follow the trail of evidence to correct conclusions. I've worked with Mark on several projects, and he always manages to help me find some valuable nugget of information that I need, just when I need it. Yet every time I pick up one of Mark's new books, I'm Baltic & Adriatic to see what Baltic & Adriatic has managed to put together. Their immediate predecessors, the so-called 'Big Four' liners, have gone largely overlooked except as a footnote to the Titanic tragedy. Not any more. These four ships, so long forgotten, have finally been given they treatment they deserve. Mark has collected a treasure trove of information, first-hand accounts, technical data, photographs, and ephemera Baltic & Adriatic this quartet of liners. The format is beautiful. Mark knows me well enough to know that if I thought it wasn't good, I would say so as tactfully as I could. Baltic & Adriatic book is a real gem, and I'm proud to add it to my collection of maritime volumes. You will be astounded. Kent Layton, 14 December It fills a gap in shipping history. This is Cedric enjoyable read with an excellent selection of pictures. Jaynes, 10 January There's some great research here along with great pictures. The only reason I bought this book was because it's written by Mark Chirnside and I'm Cedric fan Cedric everything he's ever written. I have to say this was well worth the price AND time I spent reading it! It is a great tour de forcepainstakingly researched and beautifully presented. Titanic has garnered so much attention over the years it is refreshing to read about some of the successful work horses of the Atlantic ferry and Baltic & Adriatic contributions Baltic & Adriatic immigration and the allied success in WWI. This was another excellent read and well worth it for anyone interested in white star line history. Got this as a gift and it really couldn't have been done any better. Anything and everything you ever wanted to know about these often overlooked quartet of famous liners is here, along with the single best gathering of photographs, interiors and exteriors, you'll ever find. There are also numerous deck plan and detail items, notes about the several updates these ships received through their careers, and contemporary advertising and nostalgic souvenir pieces as The Big Four of the White Star Fleet: Celtic. There are even a Cedric photos of surviving pieces The Big Four of the White Star Fleet: Celtic furniture and fixtures that still exist and are in private hands in England to this day. If you're an enthusiast of Baltic & Adriatic ocean liners, you cannot go wrong with this book. The research that went into this is extremely impressive, the text is well-written and insightful, and the photos and illustrations are not to be found anywhere Cedric. I'd give it six stars if possible. HIGHLY recommend this one - cannot imagine anyone who enjoys historic liners not being fascinated with this book'. Nachtjager, 12 July In addition to accounts from their passenger carrying years, we also see how each survived the First World War…A chapter also describes the wreck of the Celtic in the rescue of the crew and passengers, and there are a number of photos of her after she hit the rocks off Queenstown Harbour. These photos and the accompanying text, show us the gradual dismantling of the hulk, and the sad end of a great ship. Also included is a twelve page colour section, illustrating the ships, their interiors, and various advertising materials. Big Four (White Star Line) | Military Wiki | Fandom The group consisted of CelticCedricBaltic and Adriatic. After Thomas Ismay's death, the order of Oceanic ' s The Big Four of the White Star Fleet: Celtic, Olympic was cancelled. Instead, resources were transferred to the company's new project; to build the grandest fleet of ships that had ever sailed the seas, the " Big Four ". Inthe White Star Line ordered a series of four ships that were to be larger than the Great Easternterming these ships the " Big Four ". The first of the four vessels was named Celticand was ordered by Thomas Ismay before his death. She was shorter than the Oceanic but was still longer than the Great Eastern. The project was followed by the Cedricwhich was launched on 21 August and made her maiden voyage on 11 February At the time she was launched she was the biggest moving object ever built at 21, Baltic & Adriatic tons. The project was followed by the BalticCedric was launched on 21 November and made her maiden voyage on 29 June However, the Adriatic, which was the largest of the four, was also the only one not to have held the title of largest passenger ship in world. The silhouettes of the four vessels were similar, black hull with red keel and white superstructure. They were provided with four masts two front and two rear which supported the cables of wireless telegraphy. The two funnels were buff topped with a black sleeve. The vessels had luxury on an unprecedented scale, with a dining room dominated by a glass roof, a lounge with a reading and writing room with many books and periodicals, also adorned with large picture windows, a covered promenade deck, a smoking room decorated stained glass [5] [ incomplete short citation ] and in the case of the Adriatic, an indoor pool and Turkish baths. Celtic was the first of the Big Fourwhich entered service in This was the first ship to exceed the Great Eastern in The Big Four of the White Star Fleet: Celtic. Her career was marked by several accidents. Inshe was Baltic & Adriatic by a German submarine, but was Baltic & Adriatic again afloat. Inshe Cedric another vessel, but neither ship suffered consequences. The incident was repeated with another vessel in Finally, inshe struck rocks off Cobh and was considered unrecoverable. It took five years for the ship to be completely dismantled. Cedric was put into service in Her commercial career was divided into transatlantic crossings and cruises.

  • Coordination Failure and the Sinking of Titanic
    The Sinking of the Unsinkable Titanic: Mental Inertia and Coordination Failures Fu-Lai Tony Yu Department of Economics and Finance Hong Kong Shue Yan University Abstract This study investigates the sinking of the Titanic from the theory of human agency derived from Austrian economics, interpretation sociology and organizational theories. Unlike most arguments in organizational and management sciences, this study offers a subjectivist perspective of mental inertia to understand the Titanic disaster. Specifically, this study will argue that the fall of the Titanic was mainly due to a series of coordination and judgment failures that occurred simultaneously. Such systematic failures were manifested in the misinterpretations of the incoming events, as a result of mental inertia, by all parties concerned in the fatal accident, including lookouts, telegram officers, the Captain, lifeboat crewmen, architects, engineers, senior management people and owners of the ship. This study concludes that no matter how successful the past is, we should not take experience for granted entirely. Given the uncertain future, high alertness to potential dangers and crises will allow us to avoid iceberg mines in the sea and arrived onshore safely. Keywords: The R.M.S. Titanic; Maritime disaster; Coordination failure; Mental inertia; Judgmental error; Austrian and organizational economics 1. The Titanic Disaster So this is the ship they say is unsinkable. It is unsinkable. God himself could not sink this ship. From Butler (1998: 39) [The] Titanic… will stand as a monument and warning to human presumption. The Bishop of Winchester, Southampton, 1912 Although the sinking of the Royal Mail Steamer Titanic (thereafter as the Titanic) is not the largest loss of life in maritime history1, it is the most famous one2.

It was launched on 17 October 1871. It made its maiden voyage on 11 April 1872 from Liverpool to New York, via Queenstown. In May of the same year it made a record westbound crossing, between Queenstown and Sandy Hook, which had been held by Cunard's Scotia since 1866. In October 1874 the Adriatic collided with Cunard's Parthia. Both ships were leaving New York harbour and steaming parallel when they were drawn together. The damage to both ships, however, was superficial. The following year, in March 1875, it rammed and sank the US schooner Columbus off New York during heavy fog. In December it hit and sank a sailing schooner in St. George's Channel. The ship was later identified as the Harvest Queen, as it was the only ship unaccounted for. The misfortune of the Adriatic continued when, on 19 July 1878, it hit the brigantine G.A.

  • The Log of Lt Cdr E C Roden
    THE LOG OF LIEUTENANT COMMANDER E C RODEN RNR HMS Caronia 3 August 1914 - 15 May 1915 Edited by E J Scaplehorn Published by kind permission of Victoria and Fred Silvester © Liverpool Nautical Research Society 2020 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT The Liverpool Nautical Research Society wishes to thank Victoria and Fred Silvester for allowing us to publish Lieutenant Commander Roden’s Log, and for their encouragement and support in enabling this important memoir of the Great War at sea to reach a wider audience. We are particularly indebted to Fred Silvester for producing the first typed transcript, which made subsequent editing far less difficult than it would otherwise have been. We would also like to thank the Liverpool RNR Officers’ Club (‘Sea Urchins’) and especially Lieutenant Commander John Glover RD RNR for highlighting the existence of the Log, and for help with editing. The biographical introduction below is largely derived from a ‘Sea Urchins’ publication commemorating their centenary. We are fortunate that the transcribed deck log of HMS Caronia is available online at http://www.naval-history.net/OWShips-WW1-08-HMS_Caronia.htm. This has been invaluable in setting Lieutenant Commander Roden’s private log within its historical context. The appearance of Lieutenant Commander Roden’s initials throughout the deck log confers an immediacy which enhances both documents. We acknowledge with gratitude the contribution of Naval-History.Net in developing this article. 1 EDITOR’S NOTE The original log, in the possession of Victoria Silvester, is handwritten in a foolscap-sized notebook with board covers. It was passed down to Victoria from her mother, Mary Lloyd-Davies, daughter of Lt Cdr Roden.
