About this product

Product Information

  This beautifully illustrated history portrays two of the French fleet's most glamorous liners in their post-war heyday. Ile de France was a ship with unique style and character, restored and re-launched in 1949 after wartime service as a troopship. Liberte was built as the German Europa in 1930, but was ceded to France in 1946 and restyled in French Line luxury. The ships were famed for their service and on-board ambience, but most of all for being the 'best-fed liners on the Atlantic'. Each ended their days on the silver screen, Ile de France as a prop in The Last Voyage, for which she was partly sunk in 1958, and Liberte in the closing scenes of the classic film Sabrina before being scrapped in 1961. William H. Miller's latest work in the Classic Liners series brings together an unrivalled collection of images, including previously unpublished colour photography, and truly evokes the glamour of two of the most beloved ocean liners of the era.

I'm very pleased with this hard-to-find, numbered hardcover ed. of the landmark McKay-Clements Numismatic Collection Auction Sale by Frank Rose Enterprises in 1976. The seller was very open to accept my all-in offer C$10 under his initial asking price as I alerted him to the option of sending me the item using Canada Post's free shipping on Tuesdays in October program. The item is in near-fine condition. It was well-wrapped and expeditiously sent. Many thanks for a smooth transaction!

    Ile de France & Liberte’

    For those that love, and appreciate the great Ocean Liners ( not Cruise Ships ) These are two of the finest of the 20’s to 1950’s, pre and postwar ships! They were also travelers favorites, especially the Ile de France, that had an illustrious and long career! The book is well illustrated with many not before seen photos and artwork, as well as informative text!!

    Buy the book. You will be glad you did.

    Another excellent book in this series. Worthwhile having in your ocean liner library. These two ships are usually not mentioned in the top five ocean liners list. That's what makes this book all the interesting! The subjects have not received as much attention as other more famous liners. This book helps fill a gap in coverage.
