In recent years that has been a tremendous growth of interest in old lorries, (read: trucks) and more and more people have become involved in their restoration and preservation. This book traces the complete history of the lorry, from the petrol-driven lorry to the development of road transport in the First World War. It contains informative sections on military and civilian uses, the diesel engine, WWII and nationalism, preservation and more. Also, the numerous vintage black and white photographs make for further interesting reading and lend a nostalgic air to the book. For anyone interested in automobiles, militaria, or antiques in general, this book will be well worth your while.
