Off-road driving has been
gaining in popularity for some years. What originally started as a means of transport in battle, and became an essential tool for farmers and developing nations as well as the military, has led to a whole industry providing vehicles and equipment for an increasing number of people who wish to do it for fun.
Motoring journalist, photographer and experienced off-roader Nick Dimbleby describes the various vehicles and equipment that are available, from the right type of tyres to Global Positioning Systems and from roof racks to roll cages. Both basic and advanced skills are covered and there is a chapter on the often all-important recovery techniques.
The book is fully illustrated with diagrams and an excellent selection of photographs showing all manner of vehicles in a variety of exotic and not so exotic locations.
