Description

Harley-Davidson: words that evoke the open American road and the “Made in America” tradition like no others. The sweeping chopper handlebars, the distinctive throaty low speed rumble of the engine and the unmistakable logo are all recognized the world over. This book expertly ties together the mechanical evolution of Harley's engines – from the earliest motorized pedal bicycles to the iconic heavyweight twin cylinder V-engines we know and love today – and the social history of the brand's phenomenal rise in the twentieth century, as innovative survivor of the Great Depression, supplier of the military during both World Wars and enduring symbol of freedom and rebellion. It is fully illustrated with pictures of the bikes and those who have ridden them as well as examples of Harley-Davidson's distinctive design aesthetic in advertising and collectibles. Read more

  • Very good!! Short and concise...
Format: Paperback
It's a short and concise book that gives a very good idea about how motorcycles (not just Harleys) culture has evolved in the States.

  • Great Book about Harley-Davidson's History
Being a Harley rider and fan, I always love reading about the Motor Company and how they've survived all of these years. If you're into HD, this book is a great read.

  • Interesting--- As far as it goes.
While an interesting read, there's really not much meat here. You should know that a history of a 100+ year old company in 96 pages is not an in-depth treatise. I'd really love to see a Kindle book that is an exhaustive history of this fine company. How about more information regarding the founders for one thing. How about some insight into the management. This is more like the Cliff notes on Harley models etc. This is an easy read, and you can finish reading this book in just a couple of hours. Leaves you wanting more. At least as a Kindle book, it's not too expensive. ... show more
