Interesting look at the story of the battery tram, and its refusal to die. A not entirely illogical idea, until recently the major problem has been the batteries, although recent developments using battery trams over short distances, or batteries in hybrid vehicles, seems to be catching on. Despite the title, this book covers a lot of technology, and quite a few examples, outside the UK. 56 pages. 74 B&W illustrations. Larger format paperback. Adam Gordon
