Mr. Radley Drives to Vienna

If you were thinking about new book into your library, we may have a suggestion for you. This book tells a story of Silver Ghost chassis number 2260E, on its journey to win famous 1913 Alpine Trials.

One of Radley’s passengers was his friend Reginald Hope, an amateur photographer who recorded the journey. Remarkably, both the car and Hope’s photo album survived, making it possible to recreate the journey with the same car and repeat the photographs in the identical locations exactly 100 years later, in May & June 2013.
