With 127 pages of rip-roaring leather, chrome, and sheer power, Harley-Davidson: A Love Affair a testosterone-charged read. (Although in actuality an ever-increasing number of women own their own Harleys, and don't need to sit behind any man.) The Harley has humble beginnings: four friends tinkering with bike parts in a shed, a passion that they developed into a multimillion-dollar company. There is no doubt that the Harley is the most widely recognized and respected bike in the world. Heck, even the beautiful roar of the engine is copyrighted! The book is both a natural-history lesson on the evolution of this metallic species, and a photographic gallery of bikes, engines, Fat Bob tanks, and "valves the size of dinner plates." You don't need to cruise to Daytona Beach to appreciate the elegance, strength, and mastery of a Harley-Davidson--just sit back and read Jim Glastonbury's book. --Naomi Gesinger This pictorial celebration of the world's most famous motorcycle will delight Harley fans of all ages.
