I've searched the archive of the ET forum - there're mention of the film that was made on this book, but I'd like to notice some interesting episodes from the book connected with the sinking of the Titanic. Unfortunately, I've read only the Russian translation - so I cannot be sure if I make a correct "retranslation", but there's a phrase like this in the book: "There were mostly women among the survivors, but a few men as well - those who had a possibility to hide from Lightoller"
Something similar with Cameron's movie.
In general, there's an impression after this book that it was Lightoller only who saved the passengers, and where had all other officers been during the sinking, Captain included - there's no sign of it...
