RMS Queen Elizabeth: Cunard's Forgotten Queen
Running mate to the more famous Queen Mary, the RMS Queen Elizabeth, launched in 1938, was the largest passenger ship in the world until she met her fiery demise in Victoria Harbor in 1972. Her career as a passenger liner was delayed when World War 2 broke out and a top-secret plot hatched by Winston Churchill saved her from Luftwaffe bombs. She was instrumental in carrying troops and supplies from North America to the war in Europe. After the war, along with the Queen Mary, she was a favorite for crossing the Atlantic, carrying over 2 million passengers over the course of her long and iconic career.
