5.0 out of 5 stars Great and Comprehensive Book, April 13, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: The Great Luxury Liners, 1927-1954: A Photographic Record (Dover Photography Collections) (Paperback)

People who have already read my reviews on other books, will think that this review is overly cliche', but I must say that William H. Miller has got to be the greatest ocean liner author and historian in the world. This is a wonderful book, with many fabulous photos, and well written linear notes. You don't have to believe me, for I'm just a 15 year old teenager, but I can truthfully say that this book is great, and will entertain people of all ages, and interests. Another William H. Miller success story!
