The author narrates the history of this important regional operator from its origins through to the point where the imposition of the NBC's corporate image in the mid-1970s finally removed the identity of the old company from the roads of the southwest. The book recalls the many varied buses and coaches operated by Devon General during its long history. These include the distinctive Leyland single-deckers of the 1930s that were nicknamed 'camels' as a result of a hump, for luggage, located halfway along their roofs, and reflecting the company's operations within a popular holiday area.
