In the first book in this series the author mentioned that he was brought up in Doncaster in the West Riding of Yorkshire, before moving to the West Midlands. Just over twenty bus companies operated stage carriage services into the town where they terminated at one of three different bus stations.
This offered many different photographic opportunities. In his free time Paul Roberts often caught buses to nearby towns and cities and, where finances permitted, would also take photographs of buses on these journeys. He occasionally travelled further afield with members of the Doncaster Omnibus & Light Railway Society to see and record less common buses and liveries.This book is presented in the form of a tour of the three Yorkshire Ridings which existed until local government reorganisation in 1974.
