Headline: From Poole Author 124 Titanic poems for 124 Titanic souls.🚢
When the Titanic made her final stop at Cobh (Queenstown), Ireland, 124 passengers stepped aboard. Most of them were third-class passengers chasing a new life across the Atlantic. Sadly, only 44 survived.
As a maritime history enthusiast, I have always felt their stories—and the lingering mysteries surrounding that tragic night—deserved a deep, personal tribute. That is why I wrote "Titanic Conspiracy: Beneath the Waves."
This collection features exactly 124 poems, each one dedicated to the memory, the conspiracy theories, and the raw human emotion of the tragedy.
If you love Titanic history, the Kindle edition is available right now on Amazon for only £3.50 (less than the price of a coffee!).
You can download your copy and read the preview here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Titanic-Conspiracy-Beneath-Malcolm-Tilsed-ebook/dp/B0GFWKRB8N/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0

What truly happened beneath the waves? 🚢❄️
We know the history, but do we know the hearts of those who stood on the deck? My fascination with the Titanic began years ago, growing up in Poole, Dorset, where the call of the sea is never far away. 🌊
In my latest collection, I reflect on the courage of figures like Captain Smith:
"A sailor true, with courage bold, Guiding his ship through waters cold."
Titanic Conspiracy: Beneath The Waves is more than a retelling—it's a journey into the "what ifs" and the human spirit.
