More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
A funny, fascinating voyage of discovery into the car parks of Great Britain. Written by Kevin Beresford, president of the Roundabouts Appreciation Society, commissioned by AA Insurance to raise awareness of the perils of Britain's car parks. 60 car parks in Britain have been inspected, as far north as John o'Groats to the Land's End car park in Cornwall. Many varied car parks are included from the dark and dangerous to multi-storeys of breathtaking beauty and sophistication, the best view and the most friendly attendants. Doing for car parks what Jamie Oliver did for school dinners, Kevin has become a Car Park Crusader, urging our builders and architects to create well lit, spacious and clean car parks and if they house restaurants, or host mid-summer balls to boot then so much the better. Kevin Beresford is also the author of the extremely successful Roundabouts of Great Britain.

I love car parks.....,
By Melvinda "Melvinda" (Birmingham, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Parking Mad: Car Parks from Heaven (or Hell) (Hardcover)
This was bought as a secret santa gift for someone in my office - it has lots of pictures of car parks in it, together with text descriptions which to be quite frank I find a bit weird and disturbing. I mean, car parks people?? Really?? Whatever floats your boat. I'm more of a bus spotter myself.....p.s. I wont say too much to protect the identities of the innocent, but we do deal with transport policies and strategies for a living, so don't be scared.

Pleasant little book,
By Bill A. (Cheshire, England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Parking Mad: Car Parks from Heaven (or Hell) (Hardcover)
This could have been a very boring book, but is written with an ingenuous sense of humour and gets full marks for effort and outspoken originality.The author describes venues from John O'Groats to Lands End, covering most major cities in mainland Britain. Each venue is given two pages. Completely trivial, but quite interesting nonetheless. Light entertainment.
