Carefully packed and quickly sent. 201605607 Great photos and descriptive history of a major contributor to the allied success of WWII. Without the Elizabeth and others of her ilk victory would have been in doubt. She made the transition from troop transport to luxury liner in great style. Nice drawings by Os Brett prior to his well deserved renown as a great Marine Artist. I would recommend this volume to the Marine enthusiast . The almost twin ships Queen Elizabeth and Queen Mary are among the most important ships of this war. Each of these giant liners carried a division of American troops at a time to England. If either ship had been sunk or even badly damaged, the consequences for the course of the war in Europe would have been grave. This book describes in detail the war service of the Queen Elizabeth. It also has a number of photos of this great ship.Please choose Priority / Expedited shipping for faster delivery. (No shipping to Mexico, Brazil or Italy.)
