Barratt, Rex. The Hey-Day of the Great Atlantic Liners. Cornwall, Eng: Dyllansow Truran - Truran Publications. 1983. wraps. isbn: 090756657X. scarcity: very scarce.

An excerpt from the introduction “...This book, which does not by any means claim to be a comprehensive history of the great liners which traversed the Atlantic before the 1914 -1918 war, may stir memories of many who can recall those days and be of interest to those of Cornish descent who have often heard their parents or grandparents talk of their sea voyages. ....  Readers who know Cornwall will be interested in that part of the book headed The Perilous Sea and especially to my recording of some fo the notable Atlantic liners which came to grief  -  not a few of them on its rock- bound coasts.”

The book also has an addenda at the end which lists Cornish people on board Titanic. The list is broken down into two sections, lost and saved. With thanks to Patty Miller for this one.
