Prow’s Edge is packed with feature stories and reviews of cruises in which writers share their experiences on some of the world’s finest cruise ships.
The stories cover many different cruise lines and come from many parts of the world – the latest from icy wastes of Alaska’s Inside Passage Inside Passage, to the Croation Coast, from the Caribbean, from Hawaii, across the Atlantic on a Windstar ship or one of Cunard’s grand old ladies the QE2 or the Queen Mary 2, among Scotland’s magical Hebridean islands, from the fjords of Norway, the Mediterranean, to the Far East and the South Seas, and the sun-drenched coast of Africa.
Some reverberate to the beat of jazz cruises, the happy sounds of kids on the Disney Cruises, even barefoot cruises in the Caribbean.
Others take you on steamboats along the world’s great rivers like the Mississippi, Columbia River, the St. Lawrence waterway, the Danube, French rivers and canals, the Irrawaddy, and the Yangtze.
