This book is a comprehensive social history of how the London bus has worked in, and for, the capital for the last century and a half. It discusses the design,development and operations of buses in the city and its surrounding countryside and considers how the bus has served Londoners from all over the world and shaped London.

Contributions from a number of recognised authorities on bus history, complement beautiful images from the London Transport Museum' archives and other private collections. Omnibus celebrates the rich and diverse story of how city, suburban and country life have all been made easier by the London bus, its operating staff and excellent design. Throughout this story the message is clear, every journey matters.
