For well over a century the ocean liners of the world represented the highest form of human technology. As this technology advanced these great ships brought nations closer together, often closer to conflict and ever closer to the future.
This page is dedicated to providing a simple introduction to this phase of maritime history for the beginning enthusiast and for the curious web surfer who just wants to see something new. The page will, most likely, be for ever under construction so check back regularly for more.
There are several good maritime historical pages that deal well with the history of ocean liners ranging from the famous like Titanic to ships that have been long forgotten by the general public, though they were once famous as the largest, fastest, etc. I will attempt to add links to this page to expand and simplify searching for the interested viewer.
But for now I hope you find this page at least attractive and worth visiting, if not interesting as the power, grace and wonder of the largest moving objects created by humanity are presented here.
