Description
British Buses in Colour by Gavin Booth explores the transformation of buses in Britain between 1950 and 1986. Over 150 colour photographs illustrate the evolution of bus designs, from pre-war models to the rear-engined double-deckers that dominated the roads in the latter half of the 20th century. The book takes readers on a journey through the changes in bus manufacturing and ownership over the years, highlighting the impact of deregulation in 1986. With its unique blend of historical context and visual storytelling, British Buses in Colour provides a fascinating insight into Britain's transport history. Originally published in hardback in 1996, this revised paperback edition retains the author's original text and illustrations while featuring a fresh design.
