London’s taxis are famous around the world, as much a part of the capital as the red buses, Big Ben and Buckingham Palace. Their story is a long and fascinating one, with constant challenges to the makers, owners and dealers.

London Taxis: a Full History traces the story of the London taxi from 1897, when the capital’s first horseless cab, the Bersey, appeared right up to the present day, featuring:
The history of every major model and every known minor make, as well as the prototypes that never made it into production
New information about once-famous names in the industry
Over 150 black and white photographs, some of which have never been published
Technical specifications and production figures
