AUSTRALIAN AUTHORS A fully remastered photographic journey around a perennially popular luxury liner. Queen Victoria was the first in a new breed of Cunard Ships: her unique design is enhanced to give her the ability to cross the North Atlantic. Not quite ocean liner, not quite cruise ship, she represented a new era for the Cunard Line. Introduced to service in 2007, Queen Victoria's reign is young; however, she has had a notable career with royal engagements, tandem Atlantic crossings and Gala-World Cruises where she has been welcomed with open arms. Illustrated with stunning colour photographs taken by the authors from every area of the ship, and fully updated after the extensive 2017 refit, this book provides a lasting memento of a voyage aboard Cunard's stately monarch. AUTHORS: Chris Frame and Rachelle Cross live in Western Australia, where they work as a marketing executive and bookseller respectively. They have a passion for the great ocean liners and embark on cruises whenever possible. They have previously written QE2, QM2, QV and QE: A Photographic Journey as well as the QE2 and QM2 Story, and The Evolution of the Transatlantic Liner for The History Press. SELLING POINTS: ?
