Synopsis

A full-color record of the liner including images from her past and present, this is the definitive photographic souvenir of a perennially popular luxury liner

The beauty and elegance of Queen Elizabeth 2 is showcased for the first time in this luxurious paperback edition. It will appeal to a whole new generation of QE2 fans, as the book takes the reader on a journey through the liner's history with full-color photographs of each public room as they are today and a special behind-the-scenes tour of the bridge, engine room, principal storerooms, crew areas, and other parts of the ship that passengers never saw, and hotel guests are unlikely to ever see. From the unique perspective of two devoted QE2 fans who sailed aboard her during her service life, the book is filled with amusing and interesting anecdotal stories of the ship, her 40-year life at sea, and the various characters who have sailed aboard her.
