Working Scottish Trucks : Through the Lens

A photographic book bringing together 262 images of commercial vehicles spotted across some of the most scenic parts of Scotland. The beautiful landscapes offer a fantastic backdrop to the large range of haulage companies based in this rural, rugged and often difficult area.

With just one picture per page, this book reproduces Ian Lawson's perfectly captured shots to maximum effect.
The images have been taken over 30 years of dedicated viewing and focus on 10 types of vehicles - bulk transport, curtainsiders, fridges and food, general haulage, hay and stray, heavy haulage, livestock transporters, renewable energy transport, round timber haulage and tankers.
Each photo is captioned with the date, location, make and model of vehicle and details of owner and types of work undertaken.

Bonnie Scottish Trucks - A Celebration of Scottish Style

This book brings together 231 high quality photos of trucks operated by past and present Scottish companies, small firms and owner drivers who have used their vehicles as a means of attracting the eye of potential customers and as a matter of pride in the presentation of their business.

To emphasise the ownership and purpose of the vehicle, the user's name is emblazoned on the front and sides in shade lettering leaving the onlooker in no doubt. Although not exclusive to Scotland, this treatment seems to have been more prolific and has stood the test of time in Scotland.

The beautiful vehicles featured in this book were spotted by author, Bill Reid around the country, in towns, in cattle markets, on the road, and anywhere else trucks or lorries can be found.

A History of Fairground Transport - From Horses to Artics

Travelling fairs hold a special place in English history and traditions. Once or twice a year local towns and villages are overwhelmed with a cacophony of sounds, sights and smells, bringing magic and excitement into peoples' lives before, all too quickly, moving on.
The transient nature of travelling fairs is part of their magic, and an integral part of that magic is the transport that carries the people and the rides. More than just vehicles however, fairground transport is often an integral part of the show, acting as homes for the showmen, a way of generating power and even converting into parts of the rides themselves. In short, they are part of the way of life.

This book looks at the history of the travelling fair through its transport, beginning with how it has evolved from what a performer could carry on their back and simple horse-drawn caravans, through to steam-powered traction engines and war surplus petrol and electric vehicles, finally bringing the story up to date with today's mega lorries and cranes.

Fairground Lorries

The era of steam traction engines at the fairground has faded, replaced by internal combustion engine vehicles, including lorries powered by petrol and diesel. Over time, these vehicles evolved to modern high-powered lorries, some articulated, meeting the rising demands of trailer-mounted loads and longer travel distances.

Carl Johnson presents a captivating visual documentation of fairground lorries, featuring a plethora of rare and unpublished images.
