Book excerpt: A richly illustrated guide to modeling the military Land Rover, filled with previously unseen inspirational photographs and drawings. The Land Rover was originally designed to fill a gap in the Rover Car Company’s post-war product portfolio. Initially based on Willy’s-Overlands Jeep, the now-legendary Land Rover was adopted by armed forces across the globe almost immediately. By its sixtieth anniversary in 2008 the Land Rover was serving as a combat vehicle and as a first responder platform. This unique LandCraft title looks into the Land Rover’s development during the immediate post-war years, to its development and growth as a military vehicle synonymous with versatility. The book charts how the Land Rover evolved into unique military-only variants. The book also examines how this modest 4x4 grew from an innocuous Cold War cargo vehicle into a weapons platform supporting troops in the deserts of South West Asia. The military Land Rover truly offers the modeler an exciting range of subject, era and theatre choices. “A welcome addition to the very popular Land Craft Series. Aimed at model makers, this series has become popular with a much wider readership, due to the excellent text describing the subject vehicle and its deployment, including unit structures—Very Highly Recommended.” —Firetrench “All in all this is a great, compact reference work for modelers heading off on a Land Rover safari. It’s not overwhelming, provides good recommendations and fair assessments of products while presenting fantastic reference material to help the modeler get motivated and also providing enough up close detail to be helpful.” —AMPS

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was the strong allegiance of owners to their Land Rovers that prompted the creation of LRO Magazine in 1987 and following that in the late nineties of LRM. Bob Morrison has been writing during this period on all aspects of the military Land Rover both historically and as the vehicles evolved in later years. This book is a compilation of some of these articles that are mainly concerned with Land Rover's change from the old style vehicle into a frontline, liaison and command unit. Many articles cover the Wolf as it was introduced to the forces in all its guises. Included in the list are WMIK equipped Wolves on duty in Sierra Leone, SOVs serving with the US Rangers, Desert Patrol Vehicles in Kenya, CAVs at work in Bosnia & Kosovo. APVs in service in Ireland, RAF 127s, 130s and 110 FFRs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is amazing to think that time has passed by and that the second BMW "3 Series" has achieved such status that it warrants this special book on its 21st anniversary. Maybe it is due to the sheer longevity of its design, its ability to satisfy the keen driver or its iconic status - but, whatever it is, there is no doubt that the E30 is one car from the past that will stay with us into the future. It is a pending classic and prices for well kept models have started to escalate; furthermore, there is a core of well cared for cars out there requiring basic attention by their dedicated owners. As a result, there has never been a better time for a book of this sort. By focusing on the common faults which crop up repeatedly and by giving detailed, simple instructions regarding repairs, this book will be uniquely invaluable for owners who wish to try their hand at their own maintenance, especially those who may previously have been prevented from doing so by a lack of technical know-how or specific knowledge.

Book excerpt: For anyone interested in the coil-sprung Land Rovers that have served (and still serve) with the British armed forces, Land Rovers in British Military Service - coil sprung models 1970 to 2007 is a must. It covers first-generation Range Rover and Discovery models, as well as the One Ten, Ninety and One Two Seven, their Defender successors and, of course the Wolf XD derivatives.

The book is a sequel to British Military Land Rovers, the leaf-sprung models, by the same two authors (published by Herridge & Sons in 2015).
