Report of the event:

The joint authors of the new biography of Joseph Bell, ‘Tarn to Titanic’, at their Illustrated Talk in Carlisle library yesterday, expressed their thanks to Carlisle library’s Stephen White  for organising the event for them, and all attendees for being there to see and hear more about Joseph Bell the erstwhile Chief Engineer of R M S Titanic.

There was some special interest expressed in the audience by ex-Liverpool residents as well as former Marine Engineers from Cumbria.  Copies of the book were on sale provided by ‘Bookends’ of Carlisle and there were donations received for the Joseph Bell Memorial Appeal.
