description
The legendary story of Harley-Davidson''s rise to power--not only as an international industry leader but as an American cultural icon.
How did the Harley-Davidson motorcycle, originally a machine for casual riders, evolve into a symbol of defiance and liberation? An embellished 1947 Life magazine article about a California town terrorized by gangs of motorcycle punks changed the world''s perception of motorcycles from sporty machines to menaces-to-society, and as the loudest and heaviest bikes on the market, Harley-Davidsons were considered the baddest of them all.
Outlaw Machine chronicles the fascinating social history that built Harley-Davidson''s reputation--including the rise of Hell''s Angels and the counterculture classic Easy Rider--and, more entrancing still, the bike''s and its company''s storybook rise to international fame and popularity. Written by renowned automotive journalist Brock Yates, Outlaw Machine is the definitive book on the Harley-Davidson and its place in American culture.
