The Titanic was a British luxury ocean liner that sank famously in the icy North Atlantic on its maiden voyage in April of 1912. Of the approximately 2200 passengers on board, 1500 died. The high death rate was blamed largely on the inadequate supply of lifeboats, a result of the manufacturer's claim that the ship was "unsinkable." A partial data set of the passenger list was compiled by Philip Hinde in his Encyclopedia Titanica and is given in this dataset.
