The great ocean liners used to be a symbol of national power and pride.

For most of their history they were the largest moving objects built by man and, like the rockets launched during the space race between the United States and the Soviet Union, they represented the pinnacle of human achievement, symbols of a nation's industrial and technologica.

This book gives a fascinating insight into a time when great ocean liners competed for prestige and profit on the world's oceans and it brings the story up to date with how the modern cruise ships rekindled interest in travel on the high seas.
