Description
Indeed, there will never be another ship like the iconic RMS Queen Mary. A prodigy of the seas, she was constructed by the people, for the people and proved her worth on the North Atlantic and beyond. In both war and peace, the Mary has carried people from all walks of life-and some of those people have come together to tell their stories in this amazing book. In RMS Queen Mary: Voices from Her Voyages, author and researcher Nicole Strickland has answered the clarion call by not only sharing the sailing stories, accounts, and memories of former Queen Mary crew, passengers, WWII veterans, and war brides, but also highlighting how voyaging aboard this renowned vessel changed these individuals' lives. Featuring rare historical photographs, first-hand accounts, and exclusive interviews, RMS Queen Mary: Voices from Her Voyages captures the visions of yesteryear and preserves the story of this glorious ship for another generation. A portion of proceeds from the sale of this book benefits the Queen Mary Heritage Foundation.
