Publisher Description: The Golden Age of Liner travel was from the early 1900s to the 1950s, a period dominated by black and white photography, with little colour views. William H Miller and Anton Logvinenko show off colour views if the magnificent ships, from the Mauretania and Lusitania to the German four stackers, as well as Olympic and Titanic and the crack liners of the 1920s and 1930s, including Paris, Normandie and Queen Mary. Experience the glamour of liner travel as it was for the Edwardians and through the 1920s and 1930s, in colour, as never seen before. The great transatlantic liners were often photographed in their home ports, as well as at sea, and the images here give an idea of the splendour that was ocean liner travel in the golden age of shipping. |
