For over a century, the family car has shaped the rhythms of British life-from Sunday drives to seaside holidays, commuter runs to the school gate. From Morris to Mini tells the definitive story of how Britain built, drove, and loved its family cars.

The Last Privateers
Before Formula One became a playground for billionaires and global corporations, it was a battleground for dreamers. The Last Privateers tells the exhilarating and often poignant story of the small, independent teams-sometimes no more than a few friends with a fast car-who dared to challenge the sport's dominant giants. From the smoky garages of postwar Britain to the turbo-charged chaos of the 1980s and the final glimmers of hope in the 2000s, this book chronicles the rise and fall of the garagistes: privateers who ran on passion, grit, and sheer belief.With thrilling race-day anecdotes, behind-the-scenes intrigue, and profiles of legendary underdog teams like Hesketh, March, Minardi, and Jordan, this is the definitive narrative of an era when Formula One still had room for risk, romance, and rebellion. Every chapter brings the spirit of independence roaring back to life-before it was priced out of the paddock forever.

Hundreds of men worked under dangerous conditions to make the Kettle Valley Railway a reality. In this updated edition, Barrie Sanford presents a unique pictorial history of the legendary Kettle Valley Railway. From its construction to its turbulent life- span and eventual demise, the magnitude of the engineering needed to build and run the line is celebrated in this classic railway history.

Cameron's Engines
In this second volume the support crew present more stories about 60009 Union of South Africa and also John Cameron's second locomotive, 61994 The Great Marquess, which he acquired in 2003.

As before, the ups and downs of main-line running are included, as well as fascinating anecdotes and memories. Richly illustrated with more previously unpublished images, this book provides a wonderful insight to this marvellous hobby, something that has ended now that both locomotives are safely resting in John Cameron's Museum.
