Have you wondered what the difference is between an ocean liner and a cruise ship? Are you amazed at the size of the biggest cruise ships? Perhaps you are keen to know what sailing on the first ever cruise ship was like? From the introduction of steam power over 180 years ago, passenger shipping has changed dramatically. As new technologies were developed ships and shipping lines evolved, delivering ships capable of greater speed and safety, new luxuries and improved scale and size. The Evolution of the Passenger Ship explores the way ships were shaped over time, and how they in turn helped to shape the world around them.
