Wheels within Wheels: A History of Sydney's Bus Service 1930-1990

Wheels within Wheels is not about the wheels which drive your local bus, but the hidden wheels which have run Sydney's buses for many years. These being ‘the wheels of politics’, because transport has always been influenced by politicians, and not always for the right reasons and ‘the wheels of money’ as too often public funds have been spent on unworthy causes. But not all politicians made wrong decisions, and not all money invested in Sydney's buses was wasted. This book is the history of how Sydney's bus services developed and changed over six decades, including the story of how one bus owner stood up to the government, won five court cases in a row and got the law changed.
