This latest book from William H. Miller presents 150 photographs, all in rich color, and covers a span of almost 100 years: from the 1920s to the start of the current, boom cruising decade. It includes many early, often seasonal, liners; then the more purposeful generation of "floating hotels" that began in the 1960s. There are favorites such as the pre-World War II Franconia , Reliance , Nieuw Amsterdam , and Normandie ; then, in greater numbers, a "fleet" starting from the 1950s & 1960s--ships such as the Caronia , Andes , Queen of Bermuda , Nassau , Italia , Bahama Star , Reina Del Mar , Oceanic , Skyward , Song of Norway , Hamburg , Royal Viking Star , and Queen Elizabeth 2 . Steaming into the 21st century, we see the likes of the Royal Princess , Statendam , Crystal Symphony , Oriana , Queen Mary 2 , Allure of the Seas , and Viking Star .
