Canadian
Pacific's Empress
of Scotland epitomised luxury liners of the golden era of passenger shipping,
the 1930s to 1950s.
After a decade
of trans-Pacific voyages as Empress of Japan, she served with distinction
in World War II as a troop carrier. This was followed by transatlantic and
cruising service.
These pages tell
the story of this distinguished ship with the help of photographs, press cuttings,
and other contemporary material.
