This book is a comprehensive history of AJS. The first AJS was marketed in 1909, since then it built up an enviable reputation for high quality and great successes in all forms of competition, notably the Isle of Man TT, scrambling, trials and the ISDT. In 1929 the AJS held 117 world speed records. It was taken over by Matchless in 1931 and moved to London. During 1938 AJS, Matchless and Sunbeam marque were incorporated into AMC, in 1939 Walter Rusk, riding a liquid-cooled, supercharged V4 became the first to lap the Ulster GP circuit at over 100mph. This was followed by several other successes until the 1960s when AJS went into decline. A new range of two-stroke dirt bikes ensured it had considerable success well into the 1970s and survives into the 21st century MANUALS
