18 SEP. 2024 · Fonthill Abbey—also known as Beckford's Folly—was a large Gothic Revival country house built between 1796 and 1813 at Fonthill Gifford in Wiltshire, England, at the direction of William Thomas Beckford and architect James Wyatt.
It was built near the site of the Palladian house, later known as Fonthill Splendens, which had been constructed by 1770 by his father William Beckford. This, in turn, had replaced the Elizabethan house that Beckford the Elder had purchased in 1744 and which had been destroyed by fire in 1755. The abbey's main tower collapsed several times, lastly in 1825 damaging the western wing. The abbey was later almost completely demolished.

28 AGO. 2024 · RMS Titanic sank on 15 April 1912 in the North Atlantic Ocean. The largest ocean liner in service at the time, Titanic was four days into her maiden voyage from Southampton to New York City, with an estimated 2,224 people on board when she struck an iceberg at 23:40 (ship's time) on 14 April. Her sinking two hours and forty minutes later at 02:20 ship's time (05:18 GMT) on 15 April resulted in the deaths of more than 1,500 people, making it one of the deadliest peacetime maritime disasters in history.
This is the second part of the decisions and choices made, from construction to evacuation.

21 AGO. 2024 · The Titanic was one of the worst maritime disasters of all time; yet the circumstances which led up to the tragedy, had a strange foreboding which, when added together, was a fatal mixture of greed, expectation and over-ambition.
This is part one of a story which details how, even at construction, the Titanic was feted to become what it was destined to be; either a monumental marker in travel and luxury or a culmination of bad decisions which, when taken as a group, cast a shadow of catastrophe which could have been easily avoided.
