A storied ship named the United States is one of the fastest and most luxurious cruise liners of all time, with its glory days in the 1950s and ’60s. Susan Gibbs, whose grandfather designed it, has weeks to find it a new home — or it could be scrapped. nyti.ms/4fwIVbU

The future of the SS United States is now very much in doubt. Here is a narrated cruise I hosted back in 2012 as part of the book launch for #AManAndHisShip, in which we get up close to the Big Ship and I explain her historical significance.
