Год выпуска: 1989 Язык: английский Автор: David Williams Жанр: История Издательство: Vanwell Publishing Limited Формат: PDF Качество: Отсканированные страницы Количество страниц: 81 Описание: FROM VIRTUALLY the beginning of the age of steam at sea, merchant passenger vessels have been appropriated during times of war to perform auxiliary duties in support of armed forces. In this work they have served their countries' needs throughout these periods of adversity as dutifully and successfully as they served those of international trade and travel in more halcyon times. Indeed, ocean passenger ships have proved to be so suitable for emergency work, with their vast and readily adaptable accommodation spaces and high speeds, often superior to Contemporary warships, that in wartime they have been converted to serve in many very different capacities - as troopships, auxiliary cruisers, hospital ships, commerce raiders, accommodation ships and aircraft carriers, as well as in a number of even more specialised roles.
