eddmel Posted April 9, 2012 #2 Share Posted April 9, 2012 An important fact that was not detailed is that in 1912 ocean voyages were primarily a means of transportation. The focus was on getting to a particular port faster than the competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimandStan Posted April 9, 2012 #3 Share Posted April 9, 2012 An important fact that was not detailed is that in 1912 ocean voyages were primarily a means of transportation. The focus was on getting to a particular port faster than the competition. It certainly was discussed, and at length. The link to article in question was not given by the OP, but here it is: http://www.nytimes.com/2012/04/08/sunday-review/the-not-so-luxurious-titanic.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddmel Posted April 9, 2012 #4 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Thanks J and S. My recollection might have been a result of the extensive graphics with the text which compared today's cruising vs. 1912. Somehow lost was the different purpose of the travel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
