With that being said, the book appears to be a very good documentation of the models and years, with adequate background history as well. Its almost a little overwhelming, but none the less, a very good book, with good pictures and content. I feel that if you read this book cover to cover exhaustively, like I did as a teenager, you. Miles said Good general reference but needs a better proof reader.. I have great respect for Ian Falloon and own and enjoy some of his earlier publications. Paramount is his work on The Art of the Motorcycle. I purchased the 'Triumph' history since I don't have much in my library about this British icon. The photo history is very nice and the background related to development and marketing, or lack thereof, by Turner is an interesting read.

Written by respected Triumph expert Ian Falloon, all of the major and minor models are covered, with an emphasis on the most exemplary, era-defining motorcycles such as the Thunderbird, Tiger, Trophy, Bonneville, and new machines such as the Speed Triple, Thruxton, and Daytona 675.The Complete Book of Classic and Modern Triumph Motor
"There are quite a few books about Triumph motorcycles, some recent, others having been published some years ago. Among them all, Ian Falloon's latest book, "The Complete Book of Classic and Modern Triumph Motorcycles 1937-Today" is perhaps the most comprehensive. If you've been looking to add Triumph to your motorcycle library, but you don't have the shelf space for all the books out there on the brand, The Complete Book of Classic and Modern Triumph Motorcycles 1937-Today may be one of the best ways to get the broadest history and model information in one book." - Ultimate Motorcycling
