- Fantasy
Island - Fantasy Island is a resort, where there is very
little that the host, Mr. Roarke cannot provide. Thus we have
visitors have adventures in fantasies that should be impossible,
but this island can accommodate them such as visits to any
time period they want, meet absolutely anyone they see to
do something they request such as getting William Shakespeare
to write a play for them.
- Love
Boat - Love is in the air...Well, not only in the air
but also in the sea! Passengers who search for romantic nights
aboard a beautiful ship traveling to tropical or mysterious
countries, decide to pass their vacation aboard the "Love
Boat" where Gopher, Dr.Adam, Isaac, Julie and Captain
Stubing try their best to please them and sometimes help them
fall in love. Things are not always so easy but in the end
love wins and everybody leaves the dreamboat satisfied.
- CRUISE
SHIPS: An Evolution in Design - Since the earliest commercial
cruises offered in the 1840s, cruise ships have changed beyond
recognition and evolved into one of the world's most sophisticated,
specialized, complex, and expensive types of vessel. This
astonishing development is the subject of this book. While
the origins of the story can be traced back in part to the
nineteenth century, the author takes up the story in detail
with the large, modern, purpose-built cruise ships of the
1930s. The prototypes for a mass-market clientele emerged
in the German KdF ships Wilhelm Gustloff and Robert Ley. At
the other end of the scale, the exquisite 1927 Norwegian-built
cruise yacht Stella Polaris represents the prototype of a
smaller vessel offering the ultimate in luxury. In the post-war
years both ends of the industry have expanded dramatically,
and the myriad of ships which have been built, and are being
built, are described in detail. Philip Dawson developed an
interest in merchant and passenger ships in early childhood.
He started writing on shipping and ship design in the early
1980s. He is author of British Superliners of the Sixties:
A Design Appreciation of Oriana, Canberra and QE2 and the
highly successful tribute to the PandO cruise liner Canberra:
In the Wake of a Legend.
