The Book Of The Rudge by L H Cade (1927). A complete guide owners and prospective purchasers of Rudge-Whitworth motorcycles - dealing with every phase of the subject, including chapters on driving, touring, legal matters, insurance, tracing faults and overhauling.
The Rudge Book Of The Road by John Pugh (c.1928). "In presenting this book to you, we hope we shall add still further to the endless fascination and satisfaction of owning a Rudge motor-cycle. We hope it will become your inseparable comrade on the road, your guide, philosopher and friend in times of doubt and your fireside companion when the long journey's over. As far back as 1911 we began to build our first motor-cycles. We rode them ourselves. We researched. We invented. Until we were able to give the motor-cyclist exactly what he wanted of his machine. And as he and roads and times have changed, so we have improved and improved each year to meet changed requirements. In many ways we think we have led in new developments and inventions. Certainly we are proud to-day of the motor-cycles we are making. And because we feel very proud of them, you will find we have talked a good deal about them in the following pages. Because we have gathered much experience in these years we have put in a great deal of information which you will find both helpful and interesting. And because most of us are motor-cyclists ourselves and know and love the old romance of the road, we have talked of that also. We have built for you good motor-cycles, and we will go on building them. We have given you here what we hope you will consider an equally good book. May we wish you good health, good roads, good weather and good luck in all your comings and goings!" John V. Pugh (Chairman) RUDGE-WHITWORTH LTD.
