Anatomy of the Titanic, by Tom McCluskie is one of the latest books on the market. I'd tell you about it, but I don't have it yet!!! :-( I am having a little bit of trouble getting my copy from Amazon.com, who says today (I called yesterday and then today asked to speak to someone important to find out what's up, as others have already gotten it through other places....) that they still don't have it in stock yet.
The other book, Titanic: Legacy by Susan Wels includes a lot of photos of recovered artifacts from the wreck site, and uses paintings and CGI from Cyberflix to illustrate Titanic's story. It also has detailed deck plans of the first class areas of Titanic as well as the original Olympic deck plans often reproduced before Titanic's were 'discovered'.
