It is not only the mega-ships which have interesting stories to tell. In this much-praised book, Anthony Cooke recounts the histories of 46 smaller liners and cruise ships ranging from the Russian Baltika of 1940 to the British St. Helena of 1990. Among the others are such well-known vessels as Black Prince, Winston Churchill, Leda, Centaur, Mikhail Kalinin, Funchal, Golden Odyssey and Sea Goddess I. A book to stretch the horizons of the liner enthusiast.
