Program Description

Event Details

One hundred and sixty minutes is all the time rescuers would have before the largest ship in the world slipped beneath the icy Atlantic. Hear how two young Marconi operators tapped out the CQD and SOS distress codes that would inaugurate the most extensive rescue operation in maritime history, using the cutting-edge technology of the day – wireless telegraph radio. Bestselling author William Hazelgrove will commemorate the 110th anniversary of the Titanic’s sinking with a discussion of his riveting book, One Hundred and Sixty Minutes: The Race to Save the Titanic.
