100 Years of Harley Davidson by Willie G Davidson

The name Harley-Davidson is recognized the world over as an icon of the American lifestyle and the American Dream. This year, 2002, the legendary motorcycle manufacturer celebrates the 100th anniversary with a travelling exhibition, an array of television programming and online events, and this landmark publication. The author of the book is William G. Davidson, grandson of the founder and the man who has personally styled some of their most popular bikes. This is the first time that 'Willie G.' - a god among Harley fanatics and the spirtual and stylistic life blood of the the company - has told the inside story of the family business. The book contains over 500 illustrations including rare and unseen photographs from the Harley-Davidson archives which feature races, rallies, famous faces and much, much more. Willie G's narrative includes family reminiscences about the company's origins; insight in 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.
William G. Davidson is the grandson of William Davidson, who with Walter Harley started the company a century ago. Since the early 60s, he has been involved in the design of every model produced and he is unquestionably the protector of all things sacred at Harley-Davidson.
