In this updated Diamond Jubilee edition, compiled with the co-operation of her officers and crew, Royal biographer Brian Hoey tells the full story of Britannia from 1951 to the present day.
The only comprehensive book on the subject featuring exclusive first-hand accounts from members of the Royal Family, the Royal Household, Yacht's company, politicians, designers, shipbuilders and the preservation team. Written with the full support of the Royal Family to present a thorough history of the Yacht's career. Published to coincide with the 50th Anniversary of the launch of HMY Britannia and copiously illustrated with over 250 photographs and artworks, many of which are published for the first time.
