A fascinating look at the evolution of livestock transport in Britain, from drove roads to modern lorries.

Before motorised transport, livestock was herded on foot. The railways then offered bulk transport. By the 1930s, larger lorries enabled local livestock haulage, eventually replacing the railways. This book explores the history of these vehicles, from basic platforms to specialist coachbuilt types.

Discover the diverse range of vehicles and colour schemes used over the years. Bill Reid's photographs will captivate lorry and agriculture enthusiasts alike. Perfect for those interested in British history, agricultural engineering, and the evolution of transport.
