BROUGH SUPERIOR – THE ROLLS-ROYCE OF MOTORCYCLES
WRITTEN BY RONALD H. CLARK

Here is the book that someone had to write, the story of the most distinguished marque in motorcycling history. The author has had the great good fortune to have the official co-operation of the Brough Works and of the late George Brough himself. He has had personal knowledge of Brough machines since the day when, as a very young and impecunious engineer, he spent his savings on an overhead 680.
