At first glance this looks like a book purely relating to buses but not entirely, it actually encompasses a travel guide for one of the most well-known walks in England i.e. the 630 mile long South West coast path and details things to do and see along the route. With colour photographs of public transport from the 1920s up until the 2010s. It details to some extent the availability of modern day bus services between some of the most beautiful locations in this part of the country. This is rather a unique book intended to appeal to bus enthusiasts and visitors to this part of the country.

The author has captured this variety well with a series of good quality and well framed black and white photos. There is a mix of 'on the road' and depot shots, with operators both large and small included. Many of the independents depicted became part of the National Bus Company or PTE fleets at the end of the decade, so it is good to seem them in their prime. This is pure nostalgia, and well worth a look.

... the comprehensive captions to the photos give a good feel to the changes which were happening. There is a good range of vehicle types and locations, with some pretty landscapes reminding us that this is a nice part of the country.

This charming book shows the remarkable role Steve Morris and his Quantock Heritage Fleet have played in the restoration and preservation movement. It's a nicely produced book, well laid out and with great pictures.
