Description

Ships of Our Ancestors
Author: Anuta, Michael J.
Softbound volume totaling
380
pages. Book is in new condition. Just what you need  for genealogy research. Per the publisher;
Ships of Our Ancestors
is  a compilation of photographs of the steamships that were employed in  transporting immigrants to this country in the heyday of mass migration. These  were the propeller-driven, steel-hulled leviathans of legend, owned and operated  by such famous shipping lines as North German Lloyd, White Star, Cunard, Guion,  Red Star, Inman, and Hamburg-American. Photos of nearly 900 ships are arranged  here in alphabetical order, and each ship is further identified by date,  shipping line, and source. For genealogists the photographs represent a visual  testimony of the great passenger ships that grew old in service and then passed  from the scene without a trace. They are proof of a bygone time and our  connection to it.
