A feast of London in 80 years

摘要

I have noted this publication described as a 'bookazine', an understatement if ever there was one. It is a smorgasbord, a veritable feast of the many different aspects of the London bus and the capital city in which it is found. While it makes no claim to being an in-depth analysis/ history of the 80 years of centralised bus operations to London and those parts of the Home Counties which comprised the sphere of the London Passenger Transport Board, nevertheless editor Alan Millar has garnered some accomplished and knowledgeable writers to contribute, all of whom combine to capture well the scene, from the inception of the LPTB in 1 933 to this year, the 80th commemoration of its coming into being.
