ISBN: 0-7509-4451-X  (Alan Sutton Publishing, Stroud, UK)

In my opinion, the most comprehensive book available on the subject, giving basic information on the different manufacturers of motorcycles, evaluated and used by the British armed forces.
It lists amongst others brands, types, census numbers, contract numbers, frame and engine numbers, quantities dates and prices as far as has been found until now (1995).

 ISBN 0-7509-0777-0 (Alan Sutton Publishing, Stroud, UK)

A most informative book written by DR Section fitter Jack Dienst, humorously as well as with fitting seriousness. Great reading  to learn how circumstances were and what was required to keep a motorcycle on the road. Especially for the originality freaks (or actually, the "proof" that anything goes). 

ISBN 0 9530206 0 6 (Brook Books, Ashford, UK)

The book was financed by his own means, and is now nearly finished. Adress available.

A book written by DR/out rider Ron Pope, giving some insight in the duties of an motorcycle outrider escorting General Dempsey.  

ISBN 0 9535660-0-5 (Ron Pope, Bournemouth, UK)

A new book (2006) with original pictures, not always correct on its captions, reasonable quality pictures, some known many unknown, nice addition on clothing.
 

ISBN 1-84415-408-4 / 978-1-84415-408-1   (Pen & Sword Books, Barnsley, UK)

A most interesting Video compilation of 3 official Army training films of 1942. Remarkable quality.
Apart from a single shot of a Velocette MDD (WD MAC), it is all Norton WD16H!!!!
