I LOVE this letter. As a total Titanic kid, please allow me to gush about something I had no idea was trending...
My entry point: Ballard's DISCOVERY OF THE TITANIC, which my dad bought in the late 80s or early 90s. I was *obsessed* with it, and loved poring over all the interior shots. I had all the books you shared up above (gah, thank you for that and the DEAR AMERICA throwback). I can recall seeing the '97 movie and feeling incensed that they depicted "lamb with mint sauce" on a day when it was decidedly *not* on the menu. I threw a "sail away" sleepover party for a bunch of my friends on April 10, 1999 and we watched the two-video VHS set for like the millionth time. Morbid? Perhaps, but when else was I going to display the binders and binders I had filled with Titanic-related articles?
Did you ever read the Danielle Steel book that takes place on the Titanic? (LOL)
...This is the most embarrassing comment I have ever left anywhere on the internet.

Love the headline :)
If I wasn’t already convinced we would have been best friends at age 7, this sealed the deal. Titanic kids for life.
😭😭😭😭
Oh that computer game! My brother and I never could figure it out, but we did manage to build our "Puzz 3D" Titanic model!
