Binding: Paperback
Description: One of the world's most loved cruise lines P& O Cruises can trace its history back over 180 years. Through an impressive and unique collection of imagery this new and updated edition of A Photographic History of P& O Cruises details the history of the cruise line and explores the impact the company had in shaping the British Empire. With a vast fleet of ocean liners that undertook voyages to all parts of the globe P& O was instrumental in immigration to Australia and New Zealand while acting as a gateway to the Far East and India. After the advent of jet aircraft the venerable company reorganised its services to offer pleasure cruises. In Australia P& O held a near monopoly during the 1980s and 90s with their ships Oriana and Fairstar. Today as part of the giant Carnival Corporation P& O Cruises remains an iconic brand offering British - based cruises world voyages and a specialist Australian subsidiary that sails into the South Pacific.
