Titanic Inquiry Project - Electronic copies of British and American inquiries into the disaster

The materials found on this site are also available for download, for those who would like a copy of their own. If you choose to use these materials it is asked that you give credit to the Titanic Inquiry Project.

Each day of testimony is contained in the corresponding zip files listed. These will need to be downloaded to your computer and unzipped (you will need a program such as Winzip). The files are in rich text format (RTF), which should be compatible for most everyone.

We took as much care as we could to ensure the accuracy of the transcripts. However, like any large job like this, there are errors present. If, while reading the transcripts, you come across an error, we ask that you let us know so we can make corrections on the site and download files.
