MARITIME HISTORY

UNIT 6 -MARITIME HISTORY

Ships and the sea are very important in Britain. Britain once had the biggest navy in the world. Even today, many ships are used for exporting and importing goods in containers. Some people also travel by ship to go on holiday or for business.
The Queen Mary 2 is a very big cruise ship. It sails from Southampton to New York. You can visit a museum of maritime history in Liverpool.
Outside the museum, there are ships in the docks. Inside you can find out about life on sailing ships. Young men had to climb the rigging to put up the sails. This was a dangerous job.
