**An illustrated talk by John Hubbard. All welcome - free entry. A suggested donation of £3.00 to help with our expenses is appreciated.**

In this fifth talk in his series on human achievement, John will explore the evolution of the extraordinary engineering and design of the ocean liners that transported people across the globe in the era before mass air travel. He will also consider how these great ships reflected the ambitions and also the rigidities of the societies which they served, and the manner in which they have laid the foundations for the modern world of passenger seafaring.

John is a retired teacher of English and drama. He has given us many superb talks in the past on architecture, painting, and literature.
