Hello,
To celebrate 100 year of the Society of British Gas Industries (SBGI) we
published a 110 page book looking at the history of both the history of the
SBGI and the gas industry in the UK (see details below).
We still have a stock of about 1500 copies, which we are trying to find new
homes for, due to the information contain in the book it would appeal to
those with an interest in the history of the gas industry from either an
academic or personal point of view.
Please contact me for more information [log in to unmask]
Many thanks
David
