Cruise Ship Books
If you’re planning to go on a cruise soon, you could surely use a book to read. What could be more appropriate than cruise ship books: tales, accounts, and simply stories that pertain to cruise shipping and cruise tours around the world. What’s great about reading cruise ship books is that they can give you great points and insights to make your own cruise memorable. Use other cruise ships lovers’ accounts to stretch the fixed, seemingly short time you have in your own cruise ship trips.
Travel Photography: A Guide to Taking Better Pictures
You want to document every cruise travel you will experience and the best way to do is to take pictures when a Kodak moment arises. Richard I’Anson’s Travel Photography: A Guide to Taking Better Pictures is a small book packed with useful tips on taking good pictures. As your cruise progress, so as your ability to take pictures while you read cruise ship books such as this. There are lessons for beginners about aperture, shutter speed, exposure and lighting, etc. told in a very easy to follow and conversational tone. It’s small enough to fit in a handbag but big with information about photography.
Panama Canal by Cruise Ship
Another great read especially if your cruise will pass the Panama Canal is this book by Anne Vipond: Panama Canal by Cruise Ship. The book has a short story about the construction of the historic Canal as well as personal accounts about Panama Canal crossings from real travelers. Anne also included accounts of travelers at every port in North America including the new cruise ship port in Colon. You’ll never find yourself short of things to do and places to visit in every port of call if you read one of Anne’s cruise ship books.
Cruise Ship Blues
Cruise ship books are not all high praises and regard to the cruise industry, however. The Cruise Ship Blues by Ross A. Klein tells about the dark side of cruising that affects people socially and ecologically. It’s a highly controversial book and an eyeopener depending on which side you’re on. What you’ll read from Klein’s cruise ship books are certainly not the type of information you’ll read from one of cruise ship’s brochures. Use the book to educate yourself about the other side of the cruise industry, and decide for yourself if Klein’s contentions warrant attention or not.
