P & O in its historic appearance and development epitomizes the seagoing traditions of more than a century. This book provides a full picture, as well as a wealth of detail, of such traditions of decades past - when travel and transportation were not as breathless as they are today, and when means of travel displayed elegance and breathing space. P & O did not serve the glamorous transatlantic routes, but it provided seafaring quality of unparalleled excellence. It is all captured in this magnificent book.
