Description

- The inspiration for the characters of Jack and Rose in James Cameron's 1997 blockbuster TITANIC. - One of the first in-depth eyewitness accounts of the TITANIC sinking, published just two weeks after the disaster in the form of a short story. - 'Carefully observant... an unnamed man and an unnamed woman keep each other company during the voyage until they are parted by disaster' NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC. - First re-publication for over a century. SEALED ORDERS is the short story of two unnamed lovers aboard the most celebrated ocean liner of its time - TITANIC. The tragic tale was written just a week after the disaster by author Helen Churchill Candee, a first class passenger on TITANIC who had barely survived the sinking. Published in the popular US periodical COLLIER'S WEEKLY on 4 May 1912, it mesmerized readers as it eluded to many of the most famous personalities caught up in the disaster whom Helen Candee had socialized with on the fateful voyage. And, although a work of fiction, almost every episode can be proven true by referring to the wealth of firsthand accounts left by the over 700 fellow survivors. Forgotten by all but the most fervent TITANIC aficionados, this is the first time the work has been republished in over a century. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Helen Churchill Candee was a prominent American socialite and writer. She had been researching a book in Europe when she was recalled home on news that her son had been in a serious accident and hurridly booked passage by the fastest means possible - the TITANIC. She escaped the sinking ship on lifeboat 6 and masnned the oars alongside the famously 'unsinkable' Molly Brown. Many readers of SEALED ORDERS concluded that Helen Candee was the unnamed woman. She died in 1949.
