An
illustrated history of Scammell, commencing in 1837 at 46 Fashion
Street in London's East End to the closure of the Tolpits Lane
Works. However, the story does not end there for the book continues
on to the present time, revealing Unipower's commitment to the
Watford tradition of building specialised heavy duty trucks,
military vehicles and fire & crash tenders.
The book is by Nick Georgano, and
is widely recognised as being the most authoritative title produced
on the marque to date. All the innovative models are chronicled -
from the Mechanical Horse; the 100-tonner; the tractors, artics &
rigid eights; the Pioneer, Explorer & Commander; the Mountaineer,
Constructor, Contractor & Crusader; to the latter day S24 & S26
models - concluding with Unipower 's current 'C', 'M' & 'S' series
of specialist vehicles.
