"A voyage between the covers of this exacting piece of literary brilliance will render the reader cognizant of coal dust, cuspidors and a class- conscious Edwardian world now all as extinct as the mastodon. The result is a cohesive, flowing pagent of seagoing architectural history."
"Mark Warren has greatly added to our understanding of passenger ships. His new "Shipbuilder" series Volume 1 is a treasury of information, photos, folding plans and even advertisements. And it is a glorious cavalcade of illustrious names -- from the first Mauretania to the Empress of Russia - in a superbly produced book that should be in the library of every true passenger ship enthusiast and historian."
