Summary: Wow! This book is FUN. Great photos. History comes alive.
Comment: We picked up this book onboard the SS Independence in Hawaii. Hey, Wow! This book is FUN. It makes history so alive and relevant. Both my husband and I related to aspects of this story. The photographs of Grace Kelly are charming and romantic, while the politics of the period involved in getting the ships built are eye-opening. What an incredible feat of engineering to construct something of this size! The Henry Dreyfuss personal anecdotes hightlight the designer's process. There are many touching, personal stories from people who rode the boat or worked on it. Great period photos. Down to earth writing. Makes me wonder about the photographs that were not selected for this book! Thanks to the authors! A book I keep coming back to and enjoying over and over.
