Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Spotlight on Holland America Line - Volume TwoAnother Tongue-in-Cheek ViewWhat really keeps a cruise ship running?Is it the engines? The bridge? The schedules? The carefully choreographed ballet of luggage, laundry, and late-night coffee?Yes.But it's also people.After more than 18 years of sailing with Holland America Line, Frank N. Shumard has developed a habit of noticing the things most passengers never see-and asking questions most people don't think to ask. Spotlight on Holland America Line, Volume Two continues his affectionate, behind-the-scenes exploration of life at sea, shining a light on the systems, specialties, and quietly heroic professionals who turn floating cities into unforgettable experiences.This isn't a glossy brochure or a corporate handbook. It's a curious passenger's guided tour through shipboard life, filled with real-world observations, unexpected insights, and stories collected in coffee lines, corridors, and the occasional bar stool. Along the way, Frank explores everything from housekeeping logistics and maintenance marvels to galley wizardry and medical miracles-always with humor, respect, and an appreciation for the human side of cruising.Written with warmth, curiosity, and a steady dose of tongue-in-cheek commentary, this volume blends accurate, fact-based insight with entertaining storytelling. Some characters are combined, a few timelines are nudged for narrative flow, and the funny parts are absolutely on purpose.Whether you're a seasoned cruiser, a first-time passenger, or simply fascinated by how massive ships manage to glide across oceans while feeding thousands of people three times a day, Spotlight on Holland America Line - Volume Two offers a fresh perspective on what really happens beyond the railings.Come aboard for another look behind the scenes-where professionalism meets personality, logistics meets laughter, and every voyage has a story. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
