Great passenger ships that never were is a completely revised and
updated version of Damned by Destiny (Teredo Books, 1982), a
comprehensive account of the large passenger ships that, for one
reason or another, never entered commercial service. Some never
made it off the drawing board or out of the model shop, some met
with disaster after launch and some were diverted to wartime
service but didn't survive, never used for their original purpose.
They were all the victims of circumstance, whether due to financial
crises, timing or changing technology. Some of these liners and
cruise vessels may have become the greatest passenger ships ever
achieved. They would have surpassed the most famous, not only in
speed and splendour but in size and appearance, besides setting
trends that were subsequently adopted for ships that did enter
service. With beautiful pictures and detailed diagrams this book is
a true insight into what might have been.
