Thanks for clicking on this site. The books are all about keeping mechanical history alive and I love doing the research and finding ways to pass on all the amazing bits of info that I've found out about, in a fun way.

I love meeting everyone at the events with my layout as well as the books..Have a look at the events page and watch the youtube videos of me reading a few of the books on some of the pages

. Don't forget I'm always happy to sign and dedicate your books.
