Федор Лисицын и Алексей Исаев. Титаник. Воротилы бизнеса "Прекрасной эпохи"

The Belle Époque—that name has remained in history for several decades at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, ending on the battlefields of World War I. It was a time of unprecedented freedom of global travel and faith in technological and social progress. Class society still existed, but it was crumbling at the seams. The story of the passenger ship Titanic captures that era like a fig leaf, and the liner's sinking heralded the end of the Belle Époque and the onset of the world wars. Understanding the history of the Titanic is impossible without understanding the context of passenger transport across the Atlantic. There were startups, there were major players remaining in the shadows, and there was the British Admiralty with its "What if war breaks out tomorrow?" attitude. The interests of states, shipping companies, and shipbuilders were closely intertwined here. Who, and how, over cigars and alcohol, decided what the Titanic would be like? Speed ​​or comfort? Will rich or poor emigrants bring in more money?
