Description:
From the d.j.: "The reader is taken behind the scenes of life on board, sees crew and officers at work, views the complex organization below decks...There is a wealth of little-known facts in this book that will fascinate everyone, including the story of the ship's last great cruise and a description of her new role in Long Beach, California. The authors write not only with knowledge and experience, having travelled many times in the ship, but also with the pride and affection that millions feel for the Queen Mary. Captain John Treasure-Jones, last Master of the historic ship, has written a foreword."Also included are 2 unused postcards of the Queen Mary and an unused card with the copy of a painting of the Queen Mary on the front.
