Futility, or the Wreck of the Titan - a novel about the aftermath of a steamliner striking an iceberg and sinking. It was actually written 14 years before the sinking of the Titanic, and yet Interestingly predicts many of its failings. That said, the actual story has more to do with theology. I find books like this to be an interesting time capsule into the thoughts of those living more than a century ago.
