In 1926 Harland and Wolff shipyard of Belfast Ireland presented the White Star Line with a general arrangement for a new ship, one intended to be the largest ship in the world that would be, for the first time since Titanic in 1912, a British-built vessel. Thus began a years-long odyssey to create the next super liner, the RMMV Oceanic, a truly spectacular vessel - but an odyssey that was doomed to failure. Thanks to the financial missteps of the White Star Line's new owner the company was hit hard by the Great Depression and Oceanic was never finished. Oceanliner Designs explores the design, construction, engineering and operation of historyโs greatest vesselsโ from Titanic to Queen Mary and from the Empress of Ireland to the Lusitania.
