A superb photo gallery celebration of Oriana's farewell season. The cruise ship boasted Chaplin's Cinema which could accommodate 200 passengers at each show in tiered seating, a Theatre Royal at the forward end of the Prom Deck, a 650 seat high-tech modern theatre decorated in rich colours and dark woods, Crichton's Card Room named after the General Manager of P&O from 1951 to 1965, the Oasis Spa and Saloon, Lord's Tavern, Pacific Lounge, Harlequin's Nightclub with its beautiful marquetry dance floor, Anderson's elegant bar, the Riviera Pool on the Lido Deck, the Conservatory and all the bars and restaurants, cabins inside and balcony, and crew-only areas, technical information and the terraced aft decks which were a hallmark of her design. Cruise the world from the comfort of your armchair, promenade the deck or dip into the crystal pools as we are taken on a special tour of what was a new generation of British-based cruise ships specially designed for the UK market. Built by Meyer Werft in Germany and named by HM the Queen, she entered service in 1995 and 25 years later became a much-loved classic with an active cruising schedule visiting ports including Hong Kong, Sydney and Cape Town. Written and photographed by a well-known maritime historian, this is a fitting tribute. Large sized landscape softback packed with colour photos. 96pp.
