Description - Cruise Ships by Peter C. Smith

Peter C. Smith presents us here with the second volume in his visually splendid Cruise Ships series. Whilst the first volume concerned itself with the large-scale ships currently cruising through our seas (those weighing 40,000 GT and more) this volume focusses on the other end of the market; the ships that weigh in at less than 40,000 GT, but which are often much more stylish and aesthetically pleasing than their larger-scale counterparts. The elegant interiors and luxurious features on display in today's vast fleet of cruise liners remain unrecorded in all but holiday brochures. This book carries on in the tradition of Peter's last volume, giving a complete overview of the best of these ships, the cream of the crop, so to speak. Each colour profile includes external and interior views of the featured ship. Details of the design, building and service history of each vessel are provided with vital statistics of the ship and its facilities. This is a book of reference for maritime enthusiasts, would-be holiday cruisers and those who have been passengers. It serves as an impressive visual tribute to the best of the smaller scale fleet currently cruising globally. SELLING POINTS: This volume features colour profiles of the most exciting and stylish super ships weighing in at under 40,000 tons Vast market for those looking for a holiday cruise; potential to sell the book as an on board souvenir A stunning record for maritime enthusiasts, this is the most up to date reference guide available Illustrated in full colour throughout, it is a visually appealing volume, reflecting the vast array of colour displays and design aesthetics utilized in the industry of small scale commercial ship building 200 integrated colour phtographs
