Summary: Nearly 1,000 beautiful full-color pictures!
Comment:
This is a big (9-inch X 12-inch, over 500 pages) coffee table book, absolutely crammed full of beautiful full-color photographs--nearly 1,000 of them, many of them two-page spreads. It covers not only Harley-Davison's history, in text and photos, but also the different types of their bikes, roadtests, police bikes, military motorcycles, racing, custom bikes (gorgeous photos!) and even a chapter on the Honda, Kawasaki and other "look-a-likes" (the sincerest form of flattery).
The text is informative, with specifications, descriptions and road tests on a great many machines, and an excellent history including the period when AMF owned Harley-Davidson, and the machines' quality suffered.
All this by an independent writer who has written similar books on other brands of motorcycle, as well--in other words, this is not a puff piece by the factory.
"To the bandana-wearing 'Hognoscenti,' a Harley-Davidson motorcycle is much more than the sum of its steel, chrome, rubber, plastic and leather parts." --Richard Fleury, co-author.
Nearly 40 years ago, I owned a 74-cubic-inch knucklehead Harley with a suicide clutch and tank shift. I remember it fondly, and were it not for my advanced age, I'd buy another one today regardless of the price.
I recommend this book highly to any Harley-Davidson enthusiast, for their library. (Yes, many of them are extremely literate.)
