Short biography
Founded in 1821 as The New Observer, the paper became The Sunday Times in 1822. It had no relationship with The Times newspaper until 1966, when its proprietor Lord Thomson bought The Times and formed a company (Times Newspapers Ltd) to publish both papers.

In the period when Harold Evans was editor (1967-1981), its specialist Insight Team of investigative reporters produced reports on a number of historic stories, including the career of the Soviet spy Kim Philby and the thalidomide scandal.

The Sunday Times was bought by News International in 1981.

This is a very good study of the great Nixon Scandal, and seems to have been denied an ISBN. This is a pity as it is clear, objective, and while not as well-illustrated as the "Doonesbury" version of events has held up well under my occasional dips into it. A book perhaps far more popular in the UK and the world than in the USA
Artists' impressions of various cars from the late 1940s, with a short descriptive text and some vital statistics. The cover illustration is of interest, in that it depicts a Dutch-built Gatso from 1949. Mr. Gatso was so concerned over making accurate measurements of the speed of his new creation that he devised a radar speed recording system. In the end, he made more money from that system than he ever did from building cars - so much so that his name is now synonymous with police automatic show more speed limit enforcement cameras. show less
