Yankee Couple Posted December 23, 2009 #1 Share Posted December 23, 2009 Greetings! Just returned from the QM2 on Sunday and regret not getting the newest recipe/behind-the-scenes book offered on board. At the time, I considered it quite weighty and did not want to risk the fees for over-weight luggage -- or risk lugging it throughout the day in my carry-on bag (my shoulder would never be the same). That said, I am wondering if the only outlet for purchase is the ship? If not, what's the title, author, and ISBN? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Regards, happy holidays and merry Christmas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Yankee Couple, I can't help you with any details regarding the book I'm sorry, but you could e-mail Cunard and ask them if the volume is available from them via mail order. That is of course assuming that they can determine the book from your description - but it shouldn't be too difficult. Good luck anyway!

Rare Host Sharon Posted December 23, 2009 #3 Share Posted December 23, 2009 Sorry to disappoint you, but according to the latest copy of Cunarder Magazine, the book is only available on board. Nothing comes up on Amazon either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yankee Couple Posted December 23, 2009 Author #6 Share Posted December 23, 2009 Thank you, everyone, for your quick replies. I especially appreciate the link offered by Ray66. Now I have something to look forward to, almost as much as the cruise. :D So much to learn about cruising but one thing's for sure ... I think we're hooked! Again, thanks!

safarigal Posted December 25, 2009 #8 Share Posted December 25, 2009 If eBay doesn't work out, we will be getting off the QM2 in February and could pick up a copy and mail it to you. It looks interesting!:) Lesley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lanky Lad Posted December 27, 2009 #11 Share Posted December 27, 2009 My mother bought this book on Queen Victoria last month. Some great pictures of QM2, but some of the recipes are not right. :eek: My mother is not very happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lanky Lad Posted January 1, 2010 #13 Share Posted January 1, 2010 When you say not right what is wrong with them? Thanks For example, the bread and butter pudding recipe tells you to soak the sultanas in rum, but the list of ingredients does not include sultanas?
