Hi everyone.

Thought you may be interested that following the successful launch of our first book "Artemis the original Royal Princess", Sharon Poole and myself have been commissioned by P&O Cruises to write a book for the 175th anniversary in 2012.

It will be available on Amazon, onboard and in UK bookshops.

We are delighted with the book, and hope it will do justice to the brand.

Brgds,
Andrew

Congratulations on the books! Seems like only yesterday that I purchased P.& O.'s 150th Anniversary book aboard ROYAL PRINCESS in 1987.

1987 and Royal Princess being a mere 3 years old only seems like yesterday!

Congratulations. I really look forward to this. The Artemis book added a human angle to a significant ship and I will be interested to see how this one turns out too. I thoroughly enjoyed the talk Sharon gave at the International Ship Show too.

Andrew's book has been published, and I've been reading, and enjoying, my copy. I've done a review in my blog.
