From the 1920s right through to the 1960s, British manufacturers became renowned the world over for their production of reliable workaday trucks and quite rightly earned a reputation for quality engineering. The likes of Albion, Commer, Foden and Scammell would eventually become household names, greatly contributing to the countrys economic growth as well as playing major roles in times of conflict, not least during the two World Wars. Richly illustrated with over 100 previously unpublished images, the Big Book of Trucks charts the history of the King of the Road, from the humble steam wagon to giant diesel-powered articulated juggernauts.
