BUSES, by Alan Thomas, (Hamlyn, £8.95) is another for the stocking but this time has plenty of words. It takes an international look at buses and includes the technical and domestic evolution of the wide variety of bus types including integrals, double-deckers and artics.
Buses includes some rare photographs as well as an appraisal of the latest offering by some of the world's better known manufacturers.
It has chapters on the infrastructure of running buses and attempts to educate as well as entertain.
It shows that the double-deck concept is not as solely British as many might expect, and that throughout the world over the years bus designers have come up with many new ideas in bus building.
