Two Stroke Power Units
280 pages, hardback, Temple Press, 1967

Discusses all types of two-stroke power units, from chainsaws to lawnmowers, from marine to motorcycle. Although some 1960's Yamahas and Susukis are included, the discussion on porting is from the 1940's and 1950's. There are some interesting titbits but generally quite a dull book enlightened only by some historical details on Adler, DKW, EMC and MZ.

The picture is not really the front cover, since I do not have a paper jacket for mine, and the hard cover is just plain blue.
So I took a representative picture from inside.
The picture is of the Arial Arrow engine
