Beskrivelse


The book leads through each of the stages - and secrets - of ocean liner travel, from booking a ticket and choosing a cabin to shore excursions, dining, on-board games, social events, romances, and disembarking on arrival. Additional chapters disclose wartime voyages and disasters at sea. The shipping companies produced glamorous brochures, sailing schedules, voyage logs, passenger lists, postcards and menus, all of which help us to savor the challenges, etiquette and luxury of ocean liner travel. Diaries, letters and journals written on board also reveal behind-the-scenes secrets and insights into the experience of travelling by sea. The book is illustrated with pictures of ocean liner ephemera from the author's collection.
