Ships Through the Ages: Ultra-Modern Liner - "Queen Mary"

description

Summary

This liner was launched from Clydebank, England, in September, 1934 and would not be entirely completed until 1936. It is a mammoth ship whose cost was $4,500,000. It is a Cunard-White Star Liner, and as such, would have been expected to be called by a name ending in "ia." Its owners, however, departed from their custom in order to honor the present queen of England.
