SS United States is the story in words and pictures of this record breaking ocean liner. Built in 1952 for the United States Lines, the SS United States was the largest ocean liner to be built entirely in America.
The entry of the SS United States marked the first time a US flagged ship held the Blue Riband, as this amazing ocean liner surpassed European speed records which had stood for decades.
The SS United has recently been sold to the Hong Kong based Star Cruises.
