Description
Since the 1990s a huge variety of emergency vehicles have been seen in the Thames Valley area – Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire. In this book writer and photographer Geraint Roberts provides a photographic survey of vehicles from the ambulance service, fire and rescue services, police forces and miscellaneous emergency and local, regional, national and voluntary organisations operating in this area during this period. Vehicles covered range from ambulances from the NHS, private, voluntary and military organisations, Fire & Rescue service vehicles from local authority, military, airport and works brigades, police vehicles from Home Office and non-Home Office (national) police forces and military police. Many were photographed during large events in the Thames Valley, including Henley Regatta, Tour of Britain cycle races, The Ride of Respect, the King’s Coronation Concert and the Olympic Torch Relay. Whether your interest is police, fire or associated emergency and rescue services this book is a portfolio of their vehicles. Geraint Roberts offers a real flavour of 30 years of the Thames Valley emergency scene, making this lavishly illustrated volume a must for anyone with an interest in the history of emergency vehicles and of road transport in general in this area.
