"Road Scrapings: Coaches and Coaching" by M. E. Haworth is a collection of anecdotes and advice on coaching written in the late 19th century. This work reflects on the revival of the coaching tradition in England, a time when coaches were once again becoming a fashionable mode of transportation, reminiscing about the significance of skillful driving and the camaraderie among coachmen. At the start of the book, the author introduces the concept of coaching, emphasizing the importance of maintaining the traditional techniques passed down through generations of coachmen. He describes the resurgence of coaching in England during the late 1800s, noting the dedication of noblemen and gentlemen who participated in the revival. The opening also includes lively anecdotes about the experiences on the road, the challenges faced by coachmen, and the fond memories attached to coaching work. Through these narratives, Haworth aims to impart valuable lessons in driving while ensuring the reader is entertained by the colorful stories that characterize the coaching era.
