The true transatlantic super-liners : an exclusive class from Imperator to QM2
Williams, David L. (David Lloyd), 1946-2024
Books
At a time before budget air travel, when the ocean liner ruled the seas, the demand for speed, regularity and luxury on the transatlantic route launched a glorious era of ocean super-liners. They truly were spectacular design icons: stylish, elegant and massive in size, but beautiful to behold. They stirred the imagination; their achievements and exploits were legendary; and they were unique, both as a group and individually, each having a distinctive character and 'look' of its own. In this book, maritime authors David L. Williams and Richard P. de Kerbrech tell each ship's equally singular story in detail and supplement the tales with stunning photographs of a bygone era.
