This title features the definitive history of Triumph's famous Trophy and (unit construction) Tiger twin-cylinder motorcycles from 1943 until the end of production in 1983.

The book's coverage includes individual model specifications, colour schemes, engine & frame numbers, build totals, model type identification and much more. This is the 'Bible' for those seeking information about the Trophy & Tiger. It includes 144 artpaper pages and over 130 illustrations (mainly factory originals for maximum authenticity). It covers Triumph TR5, TR6, TR5A/C, T100S/C, T100C, TR7 & TR5T. The author worked at Triumph's Meriden factory from 1953 until 1983.
After National Service in the Royal Air Force Harry Woolridge applied for a job in the Service Department at the Triumph Engineering Company, and was lucky enough to be selected. Thus began a working relationship with Triumph and its motorcycles that would last thirty years: an experience Harry says he would not have missed at any price. After a few years in the Service Department, Harry joined the team in the Experimental department until he was promoted to the position of Assistant Quality Control Manager. Later, in a reshuffle of titles, he became Inspection Foreman for Motorcycle Assembly and Production Development. With the formation of the Meriden Co-operative, Harry served as Warranty/Service Manager until the factory closed in 1983.
