About This Item
Excerpt from The Clyde Passenger Steamer, Its Rise and Progress During the Nineteenth Century: From the 'Comet' of 1812 to the 'King Edward' of 1901
Pecuijar interest belongs to the inception and development of the passenger steamer on the River Clyde. The Clyde was the cradle of the steamship enterprise of the world, and the Clyde passenger steamer has been the pioneer of many, if not most, of the improvements in bulls and machinery and of the countless amenities which make travelling by sea a pleasure to-day. The sustained excellence of the boats is proved by the fact that most of them are ultimately bought up for service elsewhere. During the American War many were purchased and sent across the Atlantic to distinguish themselves as blockade-runners, while others have been acquired for places as far apart as Bordeaux and the Bosphorus, Japan and the River Plate.
