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 'potato potato' roar of the engine and the unmistakable logo are all emblems recognized the world over. This book expertly ties together the mechanical evolution of the 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 in movies such as 'Easy Rider'. It is fully illustrated with pictures of the bikes and those who have ridden them as well as beautiful examples of H-D's distinctive design aesthetic in advertising and collectibles.

    THE IDEA of a motorcycle—a motor-driven bicycle—was popularized by a swindler by the name of Edward Pennington. Pennington demonstrated a prototype motorcycle in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, in 1895, and this demonstration was the talk of the town. Shortly afterwards, he left for England, where he raised money from backers, then disappeared. Pennington had a real gift for publicity, and his demonstration sparked the idea of a motor-driven cycle in a lot of people, possibly including two Milwaukee teenagers, William S. Harley and Arthur Davidson.
