The White Empress

Cat Cleary was a sixteen-year-old Irish "slummy", full of hope, arriving in Liverpool to seek and make her fortune--and become someone in the world. And then Cat saw the WHITE EMPRESS, the huge luxury liner all ready to sail across the oceans, and from that moment her ambition was born--to be Chief Stewardess on the world's greatest liner. In spite of her poverty, her lack of education, her family background, Cat Cleary set about realising her incredible dream.
