The picture misidentification descriptions are inexcusable especially from a historian perspective. This is a frequent feature of the McCluskie books. :(

However with that aside, what makes it tolerable is the wealth and quality of the numerous photos for detail researching purposes (with the modeler in mind). To have these in abundance in a single volume is what makes the "Sisters" book a must have for any collector.

The fact that we can spot the errors is a milestone marker that we must be learning and increasing our knowledge base of the various ships in the liner class.
