Ocean Fleets is the new name for what was originally intended to be the 18th edition of Ocean Ships, a series that has charted the changing European Shipping Scene for over 50 years. The new book is again in two sections, the first providing details of the major cruise ships operating world-wide and the second, the fleets of major shipping companies operating deep-sea routes to major European ports. As previously, IMO numbers, expanded vessel descriptions and cargo capacities have been retained.
