Floating Palaces

An inside look at these famed passenger ships and the lavish life on-board. And, as nationalism boils over into the violence of World War I, watch as these elegant vessels are converted into armed cruisers and sent into dangerous waters - where many, including the beautiful "Lusitania", met their doom. Includes rare footage of history's most glorious ships. Features the complete disaster stories of the "Titanic", "Andrea Doria", "Lusitania", "Normandie", "Rex", "Queen Mary", "Mauritania" and others. Hosted from on board the "QE II" on her 999th Atlantic crossing. Four tape set.
