The Brighton Run

After “Driving the Veterans” (pages 12 151218) had gone to press we received Shire Album No 251 The Brighton Run by Lord Montagu of Beaulieu, which goes over the same ground in more detail, covering both the original 1896 Emancipation Run, and those later Commemoration runs from 1927 onwards, together with the description of the post-war events and Lord Montagu’s personal view of those veteran cars which he has frequently driven since 1950 when he drove his 1903 De Dion Bouton. With a colour cover and 51 good pictures in its 32 pages, this little book published by Shire Publications Ltd of Princes Risborough, Bucks, is excellent value at £1.95 WB.
