Krakauer's story is different from the all three of Titanic's account. The first one is the R.M.S Titanic. The author of this account is not even part of the event so his point of view would be third person and his sources would be second hand and first hand from a variety of different sources. This made a whole lot of difference because any feelings and opinions in this account would very much not be the author's but would be a collection of different sources he got from. Also, because he is not involved in the event, he would not include as much feelings and personal thoughts into the account as Krakauer. The second one from the fireman would be more related to Krakauer's because the fireman actually was involved in this terrible incident and is one of the victims just like Krakauer is in his conquest to the top of the world. However, this is a bit different because their view on the subject matter might be different. Yes they both think that what happened was utterly terrible but because Krakauer is a trained journalist and he is trained to keep his thoughts in a minimum level, there was less feelings involved and the writing was more professional. However, the fireman wasn't trained to write professional articles, so he obviously included more personal feelings and less fact.
