More than 1500 lives were at stake!All these lives were saved thanks to the heroism of the crews and captains of the two ships, and the pluck and persistence of the Republic's Marconi Wireless operator, Jack Binns.Here is Binns' story, brought to life by his granddaughter Virginia, from his birth in an English Poorhouse to his surprising and heretofore unknown roles in the events surrounding the sinking of the Titanic.
