Heath Robinson On Travel by William Heath Robinson

The world of travel is improved, lampooned and changed forever in this brilliantly funny collection of Heath Robinson cartoons. The railway system, cars, boats and the unknown are all given the unique Heath Robinson treatment, providing hilarious and impossible solutions to the travel problems we never even knew existed. Heath Robinson's sense of absurdity appeals across the generations. His love of ludicrous contraptions and genius for the fantastical continues to inspire, from the creaky props on old Doctor Who to the world of Wallace and Gromit. This is the second in a brand new series of popular themes showcasing his most memorable works, still highly relevant in today's gadget-crowded world.
William Heath Robinson was an English cartoonist and illustrator best known for drawings of ridiculously complicated machines for achieving simple objectives, for which his name has become part of our national vocabulary. An illustrator and cartoonist, he wrote and illustrated children's books as well as lampooning the secret weapons being used during the First World War.
