SS Canberra 1957 - 1997 by Neil McCart.
Twelve chapters of highly readable text in this first complete history of P&Os most famous passenger ship tell the story of Canberra from the laying of the first keel plates in 1957, to her withdrawal from service and her final voyage and arrival at the shipbreakers yard in the autumn of 1997. The in-depth research has allowed the author to cover the Canberras long career through each year of her service and the story is enlivened by memories from passengers and ex-crew members. There are over 120 illustrations, covering the Canberras career from the builders yard to the breakers yard, including a magnificent profile scale drawing, and a selection of colour photographs depicting Canberra at various stages of her long career. Also included is a fold-out section containing full deck plans of the ship.
