Urban and Rural Transport has been written to meet the needs of students who have entered the transport industry with a view to specialising in bus operation - a subject which has never been over-endowed with basic text books which give overall coverage and provide introductory reading. Whilst much interesting literature on buses and trams is readily available, it is written for the enthusiast rather than the serious student and for academic purposes is little more than a pleasant background material. The works of R. S. Pilcher and L. D. Kitchin, both experts in their day, have long since been dated, W. T. Lambden's Bus and Coach Operation no longer reflects current developments and sadly he did not live to prepare a… Read More

Original navy cloth with bright gilt titling on spine. No ownership marks. x, 362 pages, illustrated, colour & b/w maps, chronology, index. Clean and tight. Modern Europeans, argues T. C. W. Blanning, are characterized by the conviction that the ground is moving beneath their feet.

Indeed, modern Europeans have transformed not only their own continent but the world.

No ownership marks. 224 pages clean and tight, When he died in 1946, Flight Lieutenant Jack Mossop left behind a widow and child, a chest full of medals, and a diary. He was 25 years old. The diary gave tantalising glimpses of his career; sixty years on, his son has uncovered the truth. It is the story of an ordinary Durham lad called upon to perform extraordinary deeds. Serving initially as a Wireless Operator in 49 Squadron, he progressed to 76 Squadron under the legendary Leonard Cheshire, and finished as a Deputy Master Bomber with the elite Pathfinder Group in 35 Squadron. To complete even one tour of duty was against the odds. To complete a second and then to volunteer for a third was nigh-on incredible. Small wonder that one of his crewmates called him 'The bravest man I ever… Read More
