When Titanic sank on a cold night in 1912, barely 700 people escaped with their lives. Among them were six Chinese men. Arriving in New York, these six were met with suspicion and slander. Less than 24 hours later, they departed the country, and vanished. When historian Steven Schwankert first stumbled across the fact that eight Chinese nationals were on board, of whom all but two survived, he couldnt believe that there could still be untold personal histories from the Titanic. This is their story, the result of meticulous research, dogged investigation, and interviews with family members. This epic journey of research crossed continents, working with an international team of investigators, culminating in the 2020 documentary The Six. This detailed book expands on the documentary, detailing many discoveries along the way, and revealing the full story of these six forgotten survivors. Their names were Ah Lam, Chang Chip, Cheong Foo, Fang Lang (or Fong Wing Sun), Lee Bing, and Ling Hee.

When the QE2 entered service in 1969 she was the last great transatlantic liner from a vanishing era. In 1982 she was requisitioned to carry over 3,000 troops to the South Atlantic to free the Falkland Islands from Argentinian occupation. This is the first account of the significant role played by the Cunard flagship *Queen Elizabeth 2* (QE2) *to the outcome of the 1982 Falklands conflict, as told by two of the volunteers who crewed the liner to the South Atlantic, one of them a former *QE2 *captain. This detailed account includes interviews and extracts from diaries kept during the voyage by the authors and other crew members, complimented by previously unpublished images and documents. The voyage included refuelling at sea under hazardous weather conditions and navigating by night through a treacherous South Atlantic icefield. Illustrated with numerous photographs showing the conversion to a troop ship, on-board training exercises and helicopter manoeuvres, this important book is the first to reveal the enormous contribution of the ship to the British war effort, delivering the largest number of troops to the war zone.

In 1998 Rolls-Royce celebrated the 60th anniversary of the opening of its Crewe factory, the home of the companys car production since World War II. This illustrated history celebrates Rolls Royce and Bentley cars and the company that produced them. Motoring writer Malcolm Bobbitt has brought together a varied collection of photos to create this visual account. The text explains the move of the companys car production from Derby to Crewe just after the war and takes the story through the successful 1950s and 1960s. He recalls the near bankruptcy of the company in the 1970s and its subsequent recovery, and finishes with a description of the company and its cars today in light of the 1998 sale to Volkswagen and the acquisition of the Rolls-Royce name by BMW. The author concentrates on the evolution of the characteristic models - the Bentley Mk VI and the R-Types, the Silver Wraith and Silver Dawn, the Silver Cloud and Silver Shadow and Silver Spirit - and he looks at the recent revival of the Bentley marque which recaptures the spirit of the cars pre-war sporting history. The book also remembers the notable individuals who played a vital part in the creation of these famous vehicles, and it describes the companys organization and its meticulous methods of design, testing and construction.

The Land Rover is one of the most recognised vehicles ever produced and is nothing short of a British Institution. From its humble beginnings based on an ex-World War II Jeep chassis in 1947 to a 200,000+ Range Rover in 2023, for over seven decades Land Rover has provided the 4x4s of choice for royalty, the armed forces, celebrities and the everyday family. As well as being a beloved family carrier, it has transported explorers across continents, kept farms producing, helped police nations and been instrumental in saving the lives of those lost or stranded in difficult terrain. This book pays homage to this jack-of-all-trades workhorse that was once promoted as the worlds most versatile vehicle, charting the history of all the Land Rover variants manufactured, starting with the first prototype built in 1947. The smorgasbord of information covered includes conversions, both military and civilian, that have been produced both by Land Rover and by third-party companies, along with many of the prototype and concept vehicles produced over the years. There is a focus on the technical aspects of the vehicles, and the specifications of all the production variants made are detailed. The Land Rover has been used in various expeditions since the early days, and this book also covers some of the Land Rover products used for these, as well as the vehicles used for competitions such as the Camel Trophy and G4 challenges. These include those produced by Bowler, which is now owned by Jaguar Land Rover. Whether you are new to the Land Rover or a seasoned enthusiast, there will be something for you on the pages of this highly illustrated, informative book.
