"Gray Ghost" Anyone have this book?

I'm looking for some images of her in her war years, Lifeboats, gun placements etc... anything related to her being a Troop Transport

My old man is a second hand book dealer Dirk, specialises in military stuff amongst others. I can see if he has anything or knows of anyone who does if you like.

Thanks Narayan, I can get it off Amazon for around $4, Just wondering if it has what I need. Judging by the title it should.

Do you use ABE http://www.abebooks.com; ?

I did a keyword search on rms queen mary troopship and came up with 14 books, some duplicated entries - there appear to be one or two that might be useful. AVOID BEWARE of the Print-on-Demand ones, they are more than likely just an internet search or even just a Wikipedia search printed out for you ...

I think my father-in-law went over on the Queen Mary. He was a transportation NCO who initially worked troopship loading to the war zone, then went over to work the receiving end, and then the troop shipments back ....

Publishers like Ginter are now doing print on demand so it may be best to check out any reviews first...

You are correct, Simon, I should have said BEWARE OF and not AVOID & I fixed that up ....
