A photographic journey around the latest of the Cunard Queens, the grandest ocean liners ever built. Queen Anne is Cunard's newest ship, the first ship built in over a decade and the 249th ship to wear the Cunard colours. Entering service in May 2024, Queen Anne is the 2nd largest Cunard ship in their history and elevates the brand to a new and modern audience, combining an exciting interior design with classic elements of Cunard's heritage including the iconic Queens Room Ballroom, Golden Lion Pub and Britannia Restaurant.
Built at Fincantieri, Italy, the ship is of great interest to Cunard loyalists and cruise fans alike, with the maiden voyage selling out in record time. This full-colour book, the latest in this successful series, allows people around the world to experience the latest Cunarder from the comfort of their own homes, a perfect souvenir for travellers, as well as being a fantastic coffee-table feature for anyone with a love of ships and the sea.
