125 pages profusely illustrated in black and white. For over a quarter of a century the North Atlantic passage was the ultimate in sophisticated travel. The two great Cunard liners, the Queen Mary and the Queen Elizabeth, the largest passenger ships the world has ever, or will ever see, represented the apogee of that glittering era. Traces with words, photographs and contemporary drawings the stories of these great ships and their competitors, evoking the atmosphere of the grand saloon and chronicling the social history of the life-style that is now but a nostalgic memory.

8vo., Second and Best Edition, with a frontispiece, very numerous photographs in the text and endpapers plans; navy blue cloth, gilt back, a near fine copy in unclipped dustwrapper. Revised and expanded reissue of the original edition of 1988. The first dedicated study of this class, the acquisition of which proved an invaluable boost to a hard-pressed Admiralty at a crucial period. Good selection of photographs of virtually every vessel balances the enormous publicity accrued elsewhere by HMS Campbeltown following the St. Nazaire raid. Scarce.
