Now a superb visitor attraction in Edinburgh, the Royal Yacht Britannia, The Queen s floating palace, criss-crossed the world seven times during her 43 years of service, hosted four Royal honeymoons, promoted British industry worldwide, and even provided shelter for a group of Aden refugees. 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.", This affectionate tribute, written by a royal biographer with the full co-operation of her officers and crew, chronicles what life was really like on board The Queen's floating palace, including State functions, Royal honeymoons, promotion days for British industry, and even the strict, not to say eccentric, rules that governed the crew's demeanour. The book includes the final overseas voyage for the hand-over of Hong Kong, the farewell tour of British ports, the Paying-Off Ceremony that ended her 43 years of unblemished service, and going on show as a major tourist attraction. Among the items reproduced in full are The Queens' speech of thanks to the officers and crew at the ceremony, and a complete list of those on duty that day., Now a superb visitor attraction in Edinburgh, the Royal Yacht Britannia, The Queen's 'floating palace', criss-crossed the world seven times during her 43 years of service, hosted four Royal honeymoons, promoted British industry worldwide, and even provided shelter for a group of Aden refugees.
