Default McLaren books

Hi

Looking for a copy of John Pease's book "The History of J. & H. McLaren of Leeds".

Does anyone anything about the new book mentioned in Old Glory?

"The Hunt Collection. J&H McLaren Ltd. Original Company Photographs"

Thanks

If you are also interested in `An Apprentice At McLaren's 1916-1920' by S.R. Fowler, Oakwood Press, there's a copy ending in eBay tonight at 9.14. (item number 302171719443 )

I have a copy of the new McLaren works photos book - its beautifully produced and the quality of the pictures is generally very good but there are very few steam engine photos; some interesting ones of diesel conversions of ploughing engines and many of the associated tackle and implements. Hope this helps a bit.
