Résumé
Violet Jessop was a stewardess for first-class passengers on the "Titanic" when it sank on its maiden voyage in April 1912. These memoirs give us a unique glimpse of life below decks, aboard a great ocean liner. We learn what… life was like for those who worked on the ships: hilarious fellow stewardesses, cramped quarters, wartime alerts, impossible passengers, philandering shipmates, exotic ports, unrequited love and tragic deaths.
