Malcolm Root's Pageant of Transport

The transport paintings of Malcolm Root need little introduction, for his books continue to sell widely year after year. This seemingly inexhaustible interest springs from the artist's ability to combine fact accurately in his paintings with a strong sense of nostalgia, an atmosphere exemplified in Tom Tyler's accompanying text. Following on from bestsellers Malcolm Root's "Transport Paintings", and Malcolm Root's "Railway Paintings", "A Pageant of Transport" brings together a whole new series of transport images, from traction engines to aircraft.
