The Black Cab Story, Hardback Book

The Black Cab Story Hardback

Part of the Story of series

Hardback

Description

In his new book, well-known London cabbie Alf Townsend tells us the complete story of the black cab, from its origins in the seventeenth century to the brand new taxis which now grace the capital's streets.

The history and development of the black cab is explored here in Alf's straightforward writing style, alongside ninety colour and black and white images.

This is a light-hearted romp through the world of 'the knowledge', the vehicles, the streets of London and the cabbies themselves, and is full of juicy snippets and fascinating quotes which will be of great interest to anyone who loves this London icon.
