Join us on July 23 at 2 PM when maritime historian Bill Miller will present a photographic overview of the great Atlantic liners—including the Andrea Doria and her passengers' rescue ship the Ile de France—as well as castles of the sea from the likes of the Mauretania, Titanic and Imperator to the Art Deco age of Rex, Normandie and Queen Mary & Queen Elizabeth. Miller will lead an exploration of the lavish first class accommodations, the suites and salons, to lower-deck steerage for those huddled masses that came westward by sea. He will also discuss the two World Wars, the Depression and the final, pre-jet era in the 1960s and the last of this grand fleet, finishing with the current age of the Queen Mary 2. Please join us for this romantic, history-enriched presentation.

Free admission.
