GUIDE TO NORTH AMERICAN PASSENGER SHIPS More and more people are travelling today, and although the airlines rule in the category of point-to-point travel, there is no doubt that the passenger liner, as a vehicle of holiday, is far from dead. Cruising is the mainstay of many steamship lines and a great multitude of ships find some North American port as base. As more and more ships are marketed in North America, the travel agent and traveller have that much more to know. It is for these individuals that this GUIDE was written. 162 pp $9 .95 62 photographs
