"Anyone who loves to cruise will love this book. The Berlitz
Complete Guide to Cruising & Cruise Ships is one of the best
"general" cruise guides you can buy. The author Douglas Ward
provides an in-depth review of 285 cruise ships in this cruise
guidebook, now in its 26th year of publication. Mr. Ward is
certainly a cruise expert--he has spent 5600 days at sea! The guide
book has exceptional information on ships of sizes and prices. Like
me, Mr. Ward believes there is a cruise ship to suit everyone's
taste."

inserted throughout the book."
