For more than a century Blue Funnel ships, managed from Liverpool
by Alfred Holt and Company, held a unique place in Britain's
shipping industry. Starting as pioneers of cargo liners between
Liverpool and the Far East in 1866, the Company maintained a fine
reputation built on its vessels, crews, shore staff, and
management. This book traces the origins and evolution of the Line,
charting its history through both world wars, its experiences in
the great depression of the 1930s, and its vigorous response to the
challenge of containerisation in the 1960s. Integrated into the
text are discussions of the current roles of agencies and
conferences, the singular management structure, and assessments of
the parts played by key individuals.
