- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This book details the building of the huge Ttitanic model located at the Mercado in Orlando. There's a short history of the ship but a bulk of the text and photos center around building the model. Even if you've never thought about building a model of Titanic, this is still a must-have for any Titanic nut or liner fan. Reading about the process and seeing how this fantastic model was built is pretty amazing. In the end, the model is probably the most accurate ever built...Ken Marshall does the forward and admits that he was totally blown away. Definitely worth having.
