What is a cruise book? Cruise books capture the most personal memories of a Sailors Navy career. Pictures of friends, port calls and facts about their commands can all be found within the pages. Many former Sailors lose their cruise books over time, and then desperately look for a copy in their retirement years. Similar to high school or college yearbooks, they are usually prepared by the crews of ships and shore units, and are filled with stories, photos and graphic artwork that document the lives of those ships or units for a specific period of time. Many photos show crew members on duty and on shore leave, portraying both the routine and the exciting experiences the Sailors have had. If you are looking for a certain USS Navy CRUISE BOOK from WWII, Korea or Vietnam we just might have it. The cruise books have been placed on a cd for years of enjoyable viewing. This is a multimedia presentation that you will find interesting and unique. We have aircraft carriers, battleships, cruisers, destroyers and attack transports.

sailors purchased their cruise book.  Many who didn't probably wished they would have as they got older. It's a nice way to show them that you care about their past and appreciate the sacrifice they and many others made for us and our country. We never knew what life was like for a sailor in World War II until we started taking an interest in these great books. We found pictures of a relative who served on the USS Essex CV 9 during WW II. We never knew they existed. He passed away at a very young age and we never really got a chance to hear many of his stories. Somehow by viewing his cruise book, which we never saw until recently, has reconnected the family with his legacy and Naval heritage. Even if we did not find the pictures in the cruise book it was a great way to see what life was like for him. We now consider these to be family treasures. His children, grand children and great grand children can always be connected if they choose. We hope you can experience the same thing for your family. We also offer many Navy Ship, Rate (unique) and vintage canvas prints. They can be personalized and will make a great gift for yourself or someone you know.                  Over 1200 Ships                   Over 150 Rates              Over 50 Posters                                     Copyright © 2003-2013 Great Naval Images LLC.
