The Orient Express, the first train to link Paris with Constantinople, quickly became a symbol of desire and fantasy, earning the title "the king of trains, the train of kings." It achieved legendary status within its own time. This iconic train and its celebrated passengers, both real and imagined, have inspired countless stories and fueled the imagination. This book brings its history to life through contemporary photographs of restoration workshops, archival images of exotic destinations, and portraits of notable passengers.
