The 1970s heralded the universal arrival of the dedicated roll-on
roll-off freight ferry, or the ro-ro as it became more economically
known. During the early years of the ro-ro several owners continued to
carry a limited number of passengers in the same style and comfort as
expected aboard their former conventional 'short-sea' freighters. 'By
Ro-Ro to the Baltic' takes the reader aboard a bygone class-leading
vessel for a 'fly on the wall' look at its operation on an intriguing
near three-thousand mile voyage of several decades past.
