Product Description

Product Description

This work offers an insight into the world of the black cab driver. The vehicles are design classics and the raconteur-chauffers belong to a profession with a history stretching back over 500 years. They boast their own union, newspapers, cafes, car-washes and vocabulary. In this book, photographs are combined with facts, quotes, jokes and anecdotes from the drivers.
