Nicholson, T.R The Trailblazers : Stories of the Heroic Age of Transcontinental Motoring, 1901 - 14

Green paper on boards. Volume has a bruise at the bottom edge front cover, or I'd be calling this one near fine. Jacket is worn, torn chipped and creased. Now in clear cover. "In the first decade of this century the motor car bore little resemblance to the product of today. But there were, nevertheless, intrepid automobilists with faith enough in their rudimentary, erratic machines to attack the appalling hazards and obstacles of marathon journeys across vast undeveloped continents. In this book the author provides an enthralling account of eleven marathon journey's, from Dr. Lehwess' attempt to encircle the earth in 1902 to Captain Kelsey's Cape-to-Cairo attempt of 1913-14. It includes the first crossing of Europe via the Balkans, the pioneer crossing of Australia by Harry Dutton and Murray Aunger, from south to north and, later, from west to east, the crossing of Africa, and the first use of a motor car in Antarctica by Shackleton in 1908-9. A thrilling book of adventure in six continents." Motor cars used in these adventures: Panhard pantechnicon; Argyll tender; Rover; Gaggenau; Arrol-Johnston; Clement-Talbot; Talbot; Brush Runabout; Winton; Packard; Oldsmobile; Buick; Napir

Thomas, Sir Miles Out on a Wing : An Autobiography
London, England Michael Joseph 1964 First Edition Hard Cover Good Good B/W Photographs
Black paper on boards. Volume has broken tip front top corner, the other corners are thinking about being bent. Jacket is worn all edges, a tear at the head of the spine. Now in clear cover. "Sir Thomas Miles has always been one of the leaders of the new industrial revolution. In the realm of transport, in the car industry and in aviation, his achievement as an originator and executive is a fascinating part of the recent advances that has made our world so small. Like most innovators, Miles Thomas has been a man of action. Trains fascinated him, followed by motor-cycling. For the first world war he joined the Motor Machine Gun Corps., as an armoured car driver he saw the German East African Campaign. His first experience of flying was with the Royal Flying corps in the Middle East. Miles Thomas entered motor journalism as a cub reporter, and was soon motor-race reporting from the cockpit of an aircraft all over Europe, and meeting everyone connected with the driving and building of cars. The story of Miles Thomas is also intimately the story of Lord Nuffield and of the boom years of the motor industry in Birmingham and Oxford. With the approach of the next war, relations with the Government and integration with the manufacture of aero-engines became all-important. After the war Miles Thomas' energies were harnessed to other Government projects, in Central Africa and to BOAC of which he became Chairman in 1949. Currently television is part of his story too, together with major activities in the fields of the chemical industry, agriculture, engineering and high finance. This is an autobiography by a man who has made a significant contribution - one of those who accelerated the engines which are carrying us, at an ever-increasing tempo, into the future."
