Against this backdropOlympic, Titanic and Britannic were conceived. Designed for passenger comfort, they were intended to provide luxurioussurroundings and safe, reliable service rather than record-breaking speed. In the end, fate decreed that only Olympicwould ever complete a single commercial voyage and she went on to serve for a quarter of a century in peace and war.Titanic’s name would become infamous after she sank on her maiden voyage. The third sister, Britannic, saw a brief andcommendable career as a hospital ship during the First World War, sinking in the Aegean Sea in 1916.Here Mark Chirnside tells the sister ships’ stories by way of previously unseen pictures, passenger diaries and deckplans. With a focus on the human histories of those who travelled and worked on the ships, this beautifully illustratedbook details Olympic’s successful career and the premature ends of her two unfortunate sisters.

  • DSO Listing Printed 18/6/11
    WW1 DSO Listing printed 18/6/11 HMS CONWAY - WORLD WAR ONE Companions of the Distinguished Service Order Major Sydney Vere Appleyard (1897/99), Australian Army Medical Corps LG 30389 dated 19/11/1917 Awards the DSO: “He established a forward dressing station immediately at the rear of the front line during an attack, and attended continuously to the wounded, frequently going out and dressing cases in the open under heavy shell fire … his fearlessness under fire was an inspiration to all”. The Conway Honours board records the award of a Bar to the DSO; however, the Australian War Memorial Records show that he was recommended twice for the DSO, once on 7 October 1917 and then again on 21 October 1917. On the 28th December he was Mentioned in Dispatches; the only award of the DSO was gazetted in London on 19th November 1917. Nothing further is known about this Old Conway who “swallowed the anchor” and became a doctor - and dedicated himself to his patients in the carnage on the Western Front. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lieutenant Geoffrey Howard Barnish (1900/02?) RNR LG 30900 dated 13/09/1918 Awards the DSO: “For services in action with enemy submarines” A terse citation which hides a remarkable story. HMS Fairy was an elderly Torpedo Boat Destroyer built in 1898 operating as an anti-submarine escort under the command of Geoffrey Barnish which tangled with a German submarine UC 75 off Flamborough Head on the night of 31 May 1918. A merchant ship that was being attacked by the submarine managed to ram her and force her to the surface; Fairy arrived on the scene and rammed the submarine; she was in turn herself rammed, but then finally rammed and sank the U-Boat before she herself sank.

  • Pullman Gallery Issue No
    PULLMANTitle The magazine of the Pullman Gallery Issue No. 26 ‘ACCORDÉONISTE’: pride of place for issue 26 is reserved for one of Jan and Joel Martel’s finest pieces, created in 1927. The Martel twins (see page 23) proved themselves to be artists not just of quality, but true originality, and worthy of the most discerning collectors. 1 The World according to Pullman Collecting is a singular business, based principally on love of the object. Art Deco influenced pieces are a case in point, their enduring appeal sustained by loyal and discriminating collectors - pieces as covetable as anything yet to follow those inspired by the 1925 Paris Exhibition. Art Deco, the decorative style at its most sophisticated and refined, is well represented in the pages of our latest PULLMAN magazine, issue 26, our largest so far. We have cast our net far and wide in offering an exposition of some of the most respected artists and designers of their generation – Lalique, Cassandre, Mallet-Stevens, Desny, Goupy, Kelety, Focht and the Martel twins among them. By any objective consideration, PULLMAN’s collection of original posters is outstanding. A significant group reflecting the response of some very creative minds, Cassandre for instance, to the influences current in an exciting time, and more than enough to satisfy the discerning and to intrigue the curious. No less interesting and persuasive are French master Lucio Perinotto’s paintings of the air, invoking a bygone era of luxury passenger flight, John Elwell’s superb rendering of a Supermarine seaplane and, witness to history, a complete set of espresso cups with saucers from the glorious Graf Zeppelin airship service.

It was intended to reassure Channel Islanders that they had not been forgotten following their German occupation, to force the Germans to deploy resources, and to gain intelligence through German prisoners. Thought a tactical success, the raid remains mired in controversy, remembered because of Hitler’s reaction. Three days after the raid, he issued this order: "In future, all terror and sabotage troops of the British and their accomplices, who do not act like soldiers but rather like bandits, will be treated as such . and will be ruthlessly eliminated in battle, wherever they appear." Using the National Archive in Kew and the Sark Society archives, Eric Lee tells the 9780750964364 Basalt story for the first time. Did the commandos kill bound and unarmed German soldiers?

  • The 1920 Bismarck Files
    BISMARCK Compiled by Mark Chirnside Although sometimes overlooked, Bismarck ’s completion for the White Star Line (who subsequently renamed her Majestic ) was not without its difficulties. While a great deal of new information was published in my Majestic book, for reasons of space and editorial considerations there was little chance of including everything. For those interested in this aspect of the liner’s history, this page has been added to the ‘RMS Majestic Notebook.’ In July 1920 Harland & Wolff’s Messrs. Wilding and Rebbeck compiled a report about Bismarck ’s condition as she lay at Hamburg. White Star’s Harold Sanderson requested that it be forwarded to Cunard’s Sir Alfred Booth for his information. NOTES OF AN INSPECTION OF SS BISMARCK As stated in our verbal report on Friday, 2 nd July, the Bismarck was inspected by Mr. W. J. Willett Bruce of the White Star Line and Mr. Boyd of the Ministry of Shipping, in the forenoon of Wednesday, the 30 th ultimo. The information was got from them by a careful cross- examination the same evening, and read over with them and verified the following day. In our verbal report in London, some details of the position of the work on the ship were given, and what follows is only for the purposes of record: - Machinery and Boilers: The machinery spaces are all nearly complete, and the representative of the Builders’ Firm, who accompanied the Inspectors, stated that the work could be completed in about six weeks, the number of men required being about 300. So far as could be seen, all auxiliaries, deck and otherwise, are onboard, and all pipe connections in position and 90% coupled up.

  • 3877 Majestic
    RMS MAJESTIC MARK CHIRNSIDE THE ‘MAGIC-STICK’ aid down and constructed for the LGerman Hamburg-Amerika Line, Majestic was later ceded to Britain’s White Star Line to replace the Britannic, a sister ship of Titanic sunk during the First World War. At 56,000 tons, she enjoyed a long reign as the world’s largest ship. She spent most of her life on the Southampton–New York run but cruised to Canada as well as offering short cruises from Southampton. With sumptuous interiors as well as luxurious restaurants and public rooms, she plied her trade until 1936. Saved from the scrapyard, she was instead converted into a training ship for naval cadets, and sailed for Rosyth as HMS Caledonia, surviving until 1940, when she was burnt out. MARK CHIRNSIDE With an extensive collection of archive pictures of the Majestic and other ships, including photographs of the White Star vessel’s stately rooms, and striking paintings of the ship in vibrant colour, as well as a fascinating and comprehensive narrative chronicling the life of the vessel, RMS Majestic: The ‘Magic-Stick’ provides a complete history of a ship that was once the pride of the White Star Line. Mark Chirnside’s previous two works, The Olympic Class Ships: Olympic, Titanic & £19.99 Britannic and RMS Olympic: Titanic’s Sister ISBN 0-7524-3877-8 RMS MAJESTIC (both published by Tempus Publishing), have become the definitive works on these vessels, and have twice earned him ‘Book of the Month’ Tempus Publishing Ltd THE ‘MAGIC-STICK’ 9 780752 438771 in Ships Monthly.
