While in competition Cunard and Collins actually had a secret revenue sharing agreement! Also, Collins was the more luxurious line, but he was also in the most financial trouble and now Congress is questioning his subsidies.

Brief history of transatlantic shipping and then a history of each family. Cunard was interesting because they were loyalists during the revolution who were sent to Canada. Finally a history of steam-powered ships in the USA (riverboats) and England (coastline and across the sea to Ireland) where advances were centered in Glasglow. Neither side had a working transatlantic steamer yet though.
