Résumé anglais The Normandie Liner and the press (1929 -1935), Philippe Garnaud. In January 1931, the Compagnie Générale Transatlantique began building the Normandie to the general indifference of the press. Its construction was synonymous of wild expense in a context of economic crisis. The press began to get on to it really in 1932 when it was launched and then for its inaugural voyage in 1935. The Normandie then became the stakes of one of the biggest political controversies of its time.
