The book contains over 500 illustrations including rare and unseen photographs from the Harley Davidson archives which feature races, rallies, famous faces and more. Willie G's narrative includes family reminiscences about the company's origins; insight into the making of Harley's classic models; personal views about custom bike styles and the freewheeling biker life; and behind-the-scenes accounts of the company's dark days and stunning revival.
