Summary

"An historic and nostalgic look at the role of the Land Rover in the emergency services over the past 70 years. Land Rover products have been used by the emergency services almost from the moment the first model left the factory in 1948. The agility and size of these vehicles made them an immediate hit with services, where they initially became popular as factory fire tenders. Police forces were also attracted to the cross-country ability and versatility of Land Rovers, especially outside Britain, and, when long-wheelbase models provided extra space, they also became favourites for ambulance conversions."--Back cover
