Just sold on eBay, the 1969 / 70 book called "Pleasure Island" :

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Cunard-QE2-Queen-Elizabeth-2-Pleasure-Island-Hardback-Book-/114043907723?

Cunard QE2 Queen Elizabeth 2 Pleasure Island Hardback Book With Original Fold Out Ship Cross Section

Have a look while the listing is still there, with its several photographs -- this includes the wonderful cutaway which Michael Gallagher mentioned in a previous topic.

I wonder whether anyone here has a copy of this book?

I do!
Passionate about QE2's service life for 40 years and creator of this website.  I have worked in IT for 28 years and created my personal QE2 website in 1994.

I don't have a copy but looks like an interesting book
I was proud to be involved with planning QE2's 50 year conference in September 2017 in Clydebank

I love these 1970's books that record QE2's early design.

The heading at the top of the cut out says it all Lynda.
