Description
In 1840, Sir Samuel Cunard set sail aboard Britannia and inaugurated the first regular transatlantic steamship service. From that time forward, the Cunard Line has owned and operated hundreds of ships: it has transported immigrants to the new world, undertaken wartime service, and adapted seamlessly into the new cruising world of the modern age. The Queens of the Cunard fleet are as iconic today as their illustrious forbears. This beautifully created colouring book celebrates the long heritage of the Cunard Line, the stunning interiors and exteriors of the vessels, and much more besides. Supplemented with fascinating text from celebrated maritime authors Chris Frame and Rachelle Cross, it is sure to captivate and educate children and adults alike.
