The cruise ship was a British idea first proposed in the late 1830s. From the 1840s, P&O encouraged passengers to take holidays on its line voyages, and such celebrities as William Makepeace Thackeray extolled the virtues of the Mediterranean Sea route to Egypt. This study looks at the 160 year history of the British cruise ship and explains how the industry grew from its very small beginnings into one of the world's most popular vacations.
