Open Top Buses from the Edwardian & early post WW1 period especially, are the interest of the author and it would appear from the content of the book that the worse the state of these relics when found the more delighted Mike Sutcliffe is! The transformation of a solid rusting hulk that has lain dormant & neglected for some 50 years to the prestine and beautifully and correctly (in every tiny detail) machine that turns out for the Historic London to Brighton is a transformation, little short of a miracle. It seems that each and every year he turns out with yet another, reclaimed from the grave. The before and after colour photos and the stories attached to each make compulsive reading.192 large pages , book and jacket fine condition
