The author, who has already made his mark on readers' consciousness as a specialist and expert in mobile military equipment through the content of previous publications, has compiled an almost fifty-year history of tank units that formed the main striking force of the post-war Czechoslovak army. The text describes the individual phases of the development of armored vehicles in terms of design and progress, production base, organizational structure and expected use. Above all, political aspects influenced the development, production and internal army organization, but also the entire operation of the national economy, which in peacetime produced hundreds of tanks during the year at high financial costs and human resources. Statistics of domestic production with stunning numbers prove possible competition with the largest superpowers, such as the then USSR and the USA. The clear chronological form of the individual types, as well as the entire content of the new book, will refresh the memories of all who have mastered the described equipment, will delight experts, historians and expand the knowledge of fans and members of military clubs.

The Tatra 805 light truck was developed in the early 1950s – at a time when the whole of Europe was slowly recovering from the consequences of World War II. The first pages will acquaint readers with the then level of motorization of our army, which primarily initiated the need for a mobile 1.5-ton vehicle. In addition to the basic versions of the flatbed and box, other single-purpose superstructures were built on the existing chassis to perform specific army tasks. The comprehensive text will explain to readers what individual designations such as Šárka, Jarmila, Ezop, Mozek, Třinec and Neděle meant. The difficult-to-understand delimitations and transfers of the final assemblies of the T 805 between production plants are still evidence of „planned“ mistakes. Previously unpublished photographs, clearly arranged technical tables and drawings will remind witnesses of the „eight hundred and five“ from common army and civilian versions to unknown prototypes. The publication will help readers of younger generations understand technical possibilities in the context of the time.

New book from the warehouse.
The author, in his own unique way, expressed his admiration for the Sisyphean effort of all collectors and renovators of cars, buses, motorcycles or stationary engines, for their lifelong toil, which at the very end of this journey we can admire and say that our grandfathers knew how to make it, after all, that machine actually has a soul... The fates of these passionate fans and their collections are all the more interesting because after 30 years a lot has changed. Jiří Wagner accompanied the book with his photographs.

The author knew more than thirty-three years ago that the long and, above all, thorny path of development and production of the Favorit passenger car was worth carefully documenting. He had to reject the ideas of that time, he waited and waited! Developing anything new while trying to comply with the extensive tangle of many restrictions and prohibitions resulting from completely meaningless regulations was completely impossible during the years of normalization. Even though the original idea to produce a new type of passenger car within the framework of the Common Market came from the highest party positions. But the design tendencies of world car manufacturers indicated significantly different solutions from the originally intended ones. The gradual development, sometimes even illegal, was taken up by the administrative people in Mladá Boleslav. The amount of work with development and then with the preparation of production was unimaginable, but the people were enthusiastic. The most energy and time was taken up by the battles with the „windmills“ – at that time in the form of the state apparatus. When the Favorit was put into production, the leaders were melting in superlatives. Just like Ing. Andrej Barčák, then director of the PZO Motokov business group: "The Favorit was a groundbreaking project for Škoda. Škoda designed and then produced a car comparable to their European competition under significantly worse conditions. At the beginning, there were just a lot of restrictions, nothing was approved, big risks were taken, but Škoda had no reason to be ashamed of the result."„

Eliška Junková as we don't know her! Taste buds are properly activated by the content divided into four separate sections: appetizers, soups, main courses and desserts. Between each course there is always a double page of copies taken from the original photographs from Mrs. Eliška's family album. Color photographs of the finished dish are supplemented on each page with brief, concise instructions on how to gradually process the ingredients. A motorist doesn't just live on gasoline - and what's more, Mrs. Eliška moved among men and knew what makes a success on a plate. Thank your partner for their year-round care with a nice book under the Christmas tree.

The fifth volume, prepared by a proven pair of authors in the same style as the previous four publications. The content mainly includes original black-and-white company photographs, a significant part of which is published for the first time. Copies of period prints, production drawings, dimensional sketches, business and custom books, business correspondence and original technical descriptions of individual types are supplemented with subtitles and texts in Czech and English. The book, rich in content and volume, is a joy for anyone who owns the previous four volumes and promises further volumes introducing other production brands equipped with bodies from the Sodomka company from Vysoké Mýto.

With the warm words of the foreword by Prof. Pavek, which will set the reader in the right mood, the author slowly begins to unwind a continuous strip of memories. About his apprenticeship in a car repair shop and his first contacts with motorcycle handlebars, about exploring off-road motorcycle races. It is absolutely natural that Míla Souček likes to remember motorcycle sports in the colors of the army team - of course, after all, he was young, healthy and overcame random life obstacles with a smile. A separate chapter in his life, to which the author likes to return, is the period of motorcycle competitions with participation in the Six-Day Motorcycle Competition in Zlín in 1955. Between the lines, the perceptive reader can sense the devotion to motorcycles from Divišov. With ESO motocross specials of all three cubic capacities, he achieved success for our colors on tracks included in the European Championship. The last pages of the memories belong to motocross in Stříbr in 1963.
Reminisce with the author, recall the names and motocross tracks in the country and abroad.

The text presents the history of motorcycle production in Strakonice in the period mentioned. It captures the development and production of individual types in technical data, taking into account design innovations, equipment and numbers of units produced. A unique and down to the smallest, seemingly insignificant details, description of individual motorcycle types from the first motorized bicycle to the last post-war type. A book that every history expert and owner of more than two motorcycles should have for everyday use.
