The two decades between the world wars was the greatest age for passenger ships. Commercial airlines were yet to dominate, and if you wanted to travel overseas, there was only one way to go. In this book, we look at hundreds of passenger ships of all different sizes, from the ultra-luxurious to the functional, with many legendary companies featured, including Cunard for the Atlantic, Royal Mail Lines for the South America service, Union Castle for Africa and P&O out east. With over 450 illustrations, many previously unpublished, Liners Between the Wars: The 1920s and 1930s is an indulgent dip into an age of travel worth savouring--an age defined, in retrospect, more by romance and refinement than speed and convenience.
