It was an introduction to motoring for 1000s of men and women in the 1950s and 60s and it still holds a an important place in the memory of many. This book charts the huge success of the little bike from Birmingham that started its life in pre-war Germany and went on to conquer the world. It includes a full history of the BSA Bantam, special panels on important features and people, and full specifications for major models.
