Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Hardback. The Bus We Loved. Could a city grow to love anything so humble - so pedestrian, if you like - as a particular type of bus? It happened in London with the now near-vanished Routemaster, a bus that climbed higher in the city's affections the rarer it became. It wasn't just a bus but a symbol of the city: what the gondola is to Venice. Its distinctive shape drove through films and TV shows and appeared on millions of sourvenirs. It was the last bus to be designed and built in London, by Londoners, for Londoners, the last bus in Britain to have conductors as well as drivers, the last bus to ring to familiar shouts that are least a century old: fares please, full-up inside but room on top, next stop the British Museum! The last bus, in others words, to be . a proper bus. In this fond history, the author tells the story of the Routemaster's invention, rise and decline, of the people who worked on it, of the enthusiasts who were made about it. The streets of London will never be the same again. Illustrated. 204 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.).…
