“My love of the sea amounted to passionate worship. I should like to sail on and on forever and never touch land again.”
– Nathaniel Hawthorne
Oceanliners were the main mode of transatlantic crossings in the XIXth and XXth centuries, until the year 1958, when the first passenger airplane crossed the ocean. They carried first class leisure as well as business travelers, millions of Old World immigrants searching for a new life in America and thousands of soldiers during WWI and WWII. In some cases: heartbroken daughters or those with inappropriate engagements were “packed off in the hope that sea breezes, seasickness and a sojourn with a relative abroad, will do the trick.”
