There's a book, published in July 1912, titled "An Unsinkable Titanic: Every Ship Her Own Lifeboat". It sings the praises of transverse bulkheads. It has a photo of a ship sailing away with the following caption: This ship, with 34 compartments below a water-tight steel deck, would serve as its own lifeboat in the event of collision. / The 44,000-ton, 25.5-knot Lusitania
