White Star Line - History of the White Star Line  

White Star Line - History of the White Star Line


There are few names more famous, or infamous, in the history of commercial seafaring than White Star Line. To the public, this shipping company is inextricably linked to one event, the tragic loss of the Titanic on the ship’s maiden voyage in April 1912. However, the White Star Line’s pedigree stretched right back to the mid-19th century and the boom in commercial transatlantic sailing. Even after the Titanic tragedy, the company continued, plying its trade until taken over by Cunard in the 1930s.

There is much in the pages of this factual account of a commercial organisation that would not disgrace a work of fiction. The history of the White Star Line has long been shrouded in mystery and conspiracy theories, like the story of its most famous ship. This is a fascinating story which reveals an equally fascinating cast of characters as it unfolds.
