A very detailed book, told from the point of view of a marine engineers, about he Orient Line and its last liner, Oriana. The personal details that the author can contribute add tremendously to the story. There is a bit more engineering details than the average reader might want or need but the behind the scenes insights make this a great addition to any ocean liner collection.
