From the Edwardian era to the present, many great ocean liners were planned but never saw commercial service. Illustrated with period photographs and detailed plans, this survey examines 30 such ghost ships and explains the reasons for their failure. Some never got off the drawing board, doomed by financial pressures; others, including the Titanic’s sister ship Britannic, were built, but diverted to wartime uses and sunk in action.
