The West Yorkshire Road Car Company's routes from Skipton and
Ilkley up into Wharfedale, Wensleydale and Swaledale are some of
the most scenic in Great Britain, and they are captured in this
volume of historic bus photographs, taken from the 1950s to the
1970s by some of the finest photographers in their field. Using his
first-hand knowledge of West Yorkshire's network, Stuart Emmett
takes the reader on a journey in Upper Wharfedale, passing by
countless sheep farms along the grass-patched limestone river
valleys as he goes from hamlets and small villages like Grassington
to market towns like Skipton and Otley, and the spa town of Ilkley.
The enduring Yorkshire landscape, which has been used for many
films and TV programmes, such as Calendar Girls, All Creatures
Great and Small and Emmerdale, complements the little-changed
street scenes and villages to give a fascinating backdrop to this
captivating collection of more than 170 photographs, many of which
are previously unpublished or have rarely been seen in print.
