EDITORS COMMENTS
This diagram by G.H. Davis illustrates the remarkable evolution of Cunard ships from the founding of the company in the mid-19th century to the launch of the colossal Queen Mary in 1934. The diagram begins with the Britannia, a marvel of its time with a capacity for just 115 passengers in 1840. Over the ensuing decades, Cunard's fleet expanded and improved, as evidenced by the Russia in 1867, the Etruria and Umbria in 1884, Campania and Lucania in 1893, Carmania in 1905, Mauretania in 1907, and Aquitania in 1914. The Barengaria, launched in 1919, marked another significant milestone in ocean travel. The final addition to this impressive lineage is the Queen Mary, which graced the waters in 1936. At the time of her launch, she was the largest ship ever built, measuring an astonishing 1,019 feet in length and capable of carrying 35,000 tons. Her maiden voyage began in May 1936, and she primarily operated in the North Atlantic. The Queen Mary's retirement in 1967 marked the end of an era in ocean travel, and she now resides permanently at Long Beach, California, where she serves as a hotel, restaurant, and tourist attraction. This diagram provides a fascinating glimpse into the history of shipbuilding and the advancements that have shaped the way we travel the world's oceans.
