With his earlier books on the subject, David Williams has proved to be a successful commentator on the history of Cunard; this new addition to the Ian Allan Publishing list will enhance further his considerable reputation and will be of interest to all those who know or are fascinated by the great transatlantic liners." ; Small 4to 9" - 11" tall .
