About

The P&O line began as a mail contract to Gibraltar and evolved into the passageway to, Egypt, India and the 'Far East'. The Company published this corporate history on its 150th anniversary.

For more than 150 years P&O has been one of the world's greatest shipping lines. Beginning with the mail contract to Gibraltar, P&O quickly became the British way to travel the world. The first shipping company to offer cruises, more than 100 years later cruising on P&O's famous white ships remains an important part of the company's activities, although it is now an internationally based group with many wide-ranging interests. This is the history of the company and its operations.

Illustrated throughout with monochrome and colour images and maps.
