Author Travis Elborough takes through a brief history of public transport in London leading up to the development of the Routemaster in the mid-1950s. He then leads us through the highs and lows of the career of the bus that was planned to last until 1978, but lasted into the 21st century. It is a fascinating story and will delight lovers of London, London buses or buses generally.
