In spite of the worst economic depression yet encountered in the 20th century, the British motor cycle industry of the 30s still managed to design, make and sell some of the most interesting machines seen in the history of the powered two-wheeler. Descriptions of a selection of the best and the worst appear in this book, accompanied by specification details and more than 180 illustrations. Many have been ridden by the author, and are recalled with varying affection. C. J. Ayton joined the editorial staff of the The Motor Cycle in the 50s and since 1962 has been Editor of Motorcycle Sport. He is the author of the other titles in this series: Guide to Postwar British Motor Cycles, Guide to Japanese Motor Cycles and Guide to Italian Motor Cycles.
