Author Stan Yorke takes a look at the story of public transport,
explaining how services developed into the system we are familiar with
today. From horse-drawn coaches and trams to trains and buses, with
stops on the way to take in the genius of Victorian invention, the
chicanery of politicians, and the turbulence of social upheaval. The
book is packed with color photographs showing public transport vehicles
of every kind. There is also a list of places to visit where superb,
restored examples can be seen today.
