Original Blue Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine. First Edition. 2012. First edition. 288pp. Colour and b&w illustrations. "The night of 5th / 6th January 1969 saw community protests at Newcastleton station deep in the Scottish Borders which blocked the passage of the very last train along the Waverley Route prior to its closure. What was so important about this railway that drove hundreds of citizens to break the law, led by a Church of Scotland minister? Why was the railway allowed to close? Who or what should we 'blame' for its loss? And more positively, how has it come about that, after an absence of 45 years, trains will once again serve the Scottish Borders in 2014-15? These are questions that have never before been researched and answered in detail. Waverley Route: the life, death and rebirth of the Borders Railway sets out to tell a story that says much about Britain's railways in the late 1960s, and about the opportunities created by devolution of power in the last years of the twentieth century to right one of the great wrongs of the old model of London-based transport policy. Illustrated with numerous period and current photos never before published." Book and unclipped dust jacket both in excellent condition with no inscriptions.…

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good Plus. First Edition. 2013. 159pp. "In the age before Kilsyth became a coal mining town most Kilsythians were handloom weavers, operating their own businesses from their own cottages. They were visibly represented in the Burgh's coat of arms by the shuttle. Tom Crainey has discovered that ordinary weavers played a large part in the struggle for democratic freedoms. And Kilsyth weavers, whose descendants walk the streets of the town today, played a highly significant part. It is an instructive and inspiring story." Very light foxes to fore edge. Page edges browning slightly. Otherwise in excellent condition. There are no inscriptions and all contents are tight and clean.…

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good Plus. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. First Edition. 2013. 320pp. Colour and b&w illustrations, maps. "So great was the reputation of Scottish combat troops in the trench warfare of World War I that an unnamed commentator told Haldane, author of the History of the 4th Battalion, Seaforth Highlanders that 'the two most terrible engines of destruction ever made by man were the 51st and 15th Divisions, both Scottish.' In this new evaluation timed to mark the centenary of the Great War (1914-18), Colin Campbell allows the experience of the elite 51st Division to speak for itself. He has researched battalion and brigade official war diaries and regimental and battalion histories and blends them with first-hand accounts and letters, many of which have never been published before. It is said that German soldiers feared the 51st (Highland) Division more that any other British or Empire division. Both detailed and touching, Engine of Destruction is an amazing book in tribute to the Scottish soldier." Light wear to top edge of the dust jacket. Book and unclipped jacket are both otherwise in excellent condition with no inscriptions.…

Zustand: Fine. First edition hard back binding in publisher's original grey cloth covered boards, blocked and lettered silver back, aqua blue lining papers. 8vo. 9¾'' x 7''. The story of the Skye Bridge tolls ran for more than ten years. It is a story that goes right to the heart of government policy - the Skye Bridge was the first Public Finance Initiative in the UK, where a public project is built by private capital and the builder charges for the facility for years to come. The Skye and Lochalsh community felt a strong sense of injustice about what was being imposed on them from afar and The Skye Bridge Story is an entertaining and gripping account of events. Andy Anderson was a Skye Bridge campaigner who was charged and held in prison for his refusal to pay the bridge tolls. He has been assisted by numerous local people in the compilation of this book.
