A _Titanic_, as thus modified, might reasonably be pronounced unsinkable. To such a ship we could confidently apply the verdict of Brunel, as recorded in his notes on the strength and safety of the _Great Eastern_: "No combination of circumstances, within the ordinary range of probability, can cause such damage as to sink her." [Transcriber's Note All words printed in small capitals have been converted to uppercase characters. Some illustrations contain explanatory text; the keywords have been added to the captions. The following modifications have been made, Page 10: "3 1-2 inches" changed to "3½ inches" (some small angle-bars, 3½ inches in width) Page 36: "24 1-2 knots" changed to "24½ knots" (to accomplish the average speed of 24½ knots) Page 96: "TRANSLANTIC" changed to "TRANSATLANTIC" (PARTICULARS OF NOTED TRANSATLANTIC LINERS) Page 145: "U.
