Mods, Scooters & Memories is a collection of memories, pictures and true events in the mid-sixties. Mods, or "Scooter Boys" as they also became known, were a phenominon that shook the world. Mods & Rockers clashed, sometimes, but mostly were peaceful. Only the Press blew stories out of proportion. Lucky was a teenager from Great Yarmouth who became a Mod in 1963, then a Scooter Boy in 1964. In this book some of his memories are recalled in a colourful way, helping to preserve a bit more of this extraordinary era.

In adition to Lucky's story, or at least the ones he could tell, there is a chapter dedicated to the GY 65 CLUB, one of the very first scooter clubs in Great Britain. Another chapter runs through the essential history of scooters, showing Lambretta and Vespa production and advertising. This is a colorful book that bookstores will want on their shelves as it's honest and fascenating readin.

Tavares' beautiful craftsmanship brings Moore's poem to life
‘Twas the Night Before Christmas: or Account of a Visit from St. Nicholas is a beautifully illustrated edition of the famed Clement C. Moore poem. Using the original anonymous version of the poem (later attributed to Moore), artist Matt Tavares crafts a series of elegant black and white illustrations that captures its enchantment and whimsy. Additionally, the book’s layout has a simple yet classic design with green trim and subtle pieces of shading that give it a majestic look and feel. One of the best editions of the poem ever published, ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas: or Account of a Visit from St. Nicholas has a bit of magic all its own.

Beautiful book
I purchased this book for my kids to read as it gets closer to Christmas. I specifically chose it because of the old world charm it has. I love the black and white sketches and the fact that the outdoor scenes of brownstones were illustrated from Boston brownstones, where we used to live. This book is just a classic and the illustrations have such depth and emotion. There is that quality and detail you can only get from black and white..and from an amazing illustrator. Lovely book. I'm very happy to own it and have it as part of our Christmas tradition..a lot more special to me than Elf on The Shelf..which was last years Christmas book purchase.

Impressive
I have not yet received my order, but just by the two illustrations that I have seen in this ad, I would like to say that - As an artist, I am VERY impressed by the pencil drawings in this book by Matt Tavares. I was looking for a SPECIAL 'Night Before Christmas' book to give to my sons so that they could continue the tradition that we had of reading the book every Christmas Eve to them. Now they will have their own book to read to their children, to continue our tradition. One that is unique and timeless.
