Praise for Helen Doe's previous books:'Sensitive and well researched.' Richard Overy'Meticulously researched... expertly written.' Britain at War Magazine'An excellent book and I would highly recomend it.' Shipping Today'Helen Doe gives long-overdue recognition to Brunel's first steamship... bringing to life some of the key personalities who made the ambitious project a reality.' Nautilus TelegraphIn SS Great Britain, Helen Doe provides a unique narrative account of this most famous and historically important of British ships. The book charts the ship's brilliant design and contruction, including the contribution of engineering genius Brunel. But it also brings to light the contribution of many other individuals, ranging from crew members to passengers, drawing on the records of the SS Great Britain Trust, from its archive in Bristol Docks, the ship's birthplace and resting-place today. In this way, the ship's life and times are recreated and the history of a technical marvel of its age is given a human face. This a compelling account of an iconic ship and of an important moment in the industrial history of Britain and the wider world.
