Questions about post break up final plunge
Recently I purchased a copy of “Titanic at Two AM” by Paul Quinn. I used to read this book all the time from my local library as a kid and I have always loved how in depth and detailed Quinn’s descriptions are on top of all the survivor testimony but in thing that never clicked with me until now is that it’s odd he chooses to describe the sterns final plunge as more of a roll to the port side, dumping everyone into the sea, aside from Charles Joughin (who is seen in the painting). This book in my opinion is very accurate for the understanding at the time of publication (1994), and a lot of it holds up today I’m just curious why he chose to go with the the port roll? If I’m not mistaken don’t most historians agree it did list to port break but still went nearly vertical? Are there other survivor testimonies that describe or support Charles Joughins port roll? I know Joughins story wildly changes which is another reason I’m puzzled that a very accurate book would go with this.
