Legend of the Delta Queen

This is Bern Keating's chronicle of the Delta Queen, America's last authentic paddlewheel steamboat offering overnight river travel. That the Queen continues to cruise the rivers is a tribute to all who care about preserving our national past. Everyone interested in American history will be both informed and charmed by this beautifully illustrated book which commemorates the paddlewheeler's first 60 years. The Delta Queen is a living link to the romantic past of the great era of steamboatin' immortalized in Mark Twain's Life on the Mississippi. --- from book's back cover
