Very many thanks to everyone who have both written to me and emailed such glowing feedback on my books. It really means a lot to me. If you enjoyed any of my books, please also feel free to leave feedback in the comments section of this website. Here are just some of the absolutely wonderful letters I've received most recently, regarding my Eynon's book (I've blurred out the names and addresses for privacy reasons). I've also received numerous emails, in addition to these lovely letters. Again, thanks ever so much. </div>

Over the past year and a half, since the release of the Images book, I've been busy writing a new book on Samuel Eynons & Sons, which I am happy to report, has just been published! It can now be purchased on this website, or from Amazon. I hope you will enjoy reading it as much as I have enjoyed writing and researching it. <br />

My book on James of Ammanford, is listed on the catalogue of The British Library in London. My book has also been purchased by The National Library of Wales. I am overwhelmed and overjoyed by the positive response it has received, thus far, and I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has purchased my book.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I am still taking orders via this website, and a few books have been sold to local bookshops. My book is currently listed on Amazon, Waterstones, and Foyles, but I have taken the decision to hold back on supplying to large retailers temporarily, due to the commission that retailers take. I am already receiving a large number of orders via this website and by telephone, which I am always very happy in dealing with personally.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If you have enjoyed my book, please feel free to leave feedback on this website. I would be delighted to hear from you.</div>

THE
history and sad demise of a legendary Ammanford bus company, which
disappeared 50 years ago, is the subject of a fascinating new book by a
Llanelli bus driver.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Vernon Morgan spent eight years researching
the story of J James and Sons Ltd, Ammanford, and the fruits of his
labours can be seen in his self-published work.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Illustrated with
112 photographs, the book is a limited edition to commemorate the 50th
anniversary of the company’s demise and the 100th anniversary of their
first vehicle.</div>

</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Founded
by John James, the company was not only the first bus operator in
Ammanford, but also held the distinction of putting the first
double-decker on the roads of Carmarthenshire.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“The name was
synonymous with a high-quality, reputable omnibus service in the Amman,
Gwendraeth and Swansea Valleys,” Mr Morgan, 68, told the Guardian. “It
was a muchloved company whose name became a household word in the west
Wales mining communities.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“At one time it was the county’s largest
public service vehicle operator, running 54 buses on 21 services to
Neath, Swansea, Llanelli, Burry Port, Lampeter and Aberystwyth.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

John
James first became involved with public transport in 1900, when he
bought a mews at Ammanford, diversifying from his grocery business in
Wind Street.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Operating horse-drawn traps and brakes, he became a
posting master – his clientele being the best-known commercial
travellers in South Wales. Goods were also carried and the James family
also ran a successful funeral business.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Switching to motor
vehicles in 1912, James launched a service to Pantyffynnon and Brynaman
which successfully competed against a passenger railway and fought off
numerous competitors.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The book covers the historic six-week
Ammanford bus strike, which led to a riot on Ammanford Square, bus
windows being smashed and no fewer than 18 arrests.</div>
