Your publisher of definitive Trolleybus history books
TROLLEYBOOKS was formed in 1972 to combine the resources of two of the
major UK-based
trolleybus enthusiast
societies in regard to the publication of definitive books about
trolleybuses, their history and their operation.
By this means it
was intended to obviate duplication of subject (and therefore of
research); to cast the net for inclusion of dependable information much
wider than would otherwise have been possible; to simplify the funding of
printing costs; and, most importantly, to ensure that proceeds from sales
would be directly channelled back to the constituent societies to help
fund preserved
trolleybus restoration
costs. In the UK, possibly 95% of
trolleybus enthusiasts
are comprised of persons whose first love is either trams or motorbuses.
TROLLEYBOOKS is proud of its track record, having built up a
first-class reputation for the authoritativeness and quality of its
products. The buyers of its products probably rarely appreciate just how
long each title is in preparation. However, we are pleased to say that we
do still have a formidable list of titles in various stages of
preparation, that these are being worked up to the same high standards,
and that every effort will be made to continue to publish
trolleybus books to
the established standards or better.
