Crosville in Liverpool

An illustrated history of Crosville and its buses in Liverpool from the start of operations in the 1920s to closure of its depot in 1987. ''The author should be commended for telling the story of Crosville Liverpool in such an unbiased and factual way so that it is placed on record. It is a story that needed to be told.'' ''A superb book which leaves nothing untold, this is one that can be highly recommended to enthusiasts and historians alike, and will be read time and time again.''

The Crosville bus company started bus operations in Liverpool in 1922 and by the end of the decade was the leading operator across the Wirral and into Lancashire, Cheshire and North Wales. Crosville buses were an everyday sight in Merseyside until its Liverpool depot closed in early 1987 following deregulation of the bus industry in October 1986.

Richard Lloyd Jones charts the fortunes of Crosville in Liverpool over sixty years, drawing on archive photographs of the company, its depot and vehicles as well as personal accounts of staff and their families.
