Umbria, Etruria, Carmania

[Chris]

Just added a few more notable liners to my Cunard Archives. I spoke of these liners in my recent lectures aboard Queen Mary 2. They are often forgotten (compared to the likes of the Queens / Mauretania / Caronia II etc...) but are fascinating liners:

Thought you'd enjoy

Yes, I do enjoy reading about my little cuzzies (cousins), says the Maury. Many thanks for mentioning these smaller ships - I have several books about the Cunard ships of the earlier years, and many people today forget Cunard had a whole fleet of ships (mostly built in the U.K.)
