🚕My Reviews:- This book was interesting and I enjoyed history and the quirky facts that the author added. My Uncle had a taxi firm and my dad worked for him many years ago, so I grow up around the drivers and the taxi cars themselves. Back in those days most of the drivers were all middle to older age white driver but now it is a multi culture job. I like how the author did her researchv from taxi drivers themselves and the stories they told her.
