Reviews
"Maybe the baddest man on two wheels." -- Rolling Stone "Hell's Angel chieftain Ralph 'Sonny' Barger has led one interesting, bad-to-the-bone life." -- Seattle Times "Barger's autobiography is about as subtle as a kick in the groin, and that's what's so refreshing about it." -- San Francisco Chronicle "One of the best books of the year." -- Maxim "The hombre who gave you motorcycle culture...The biker style that Barger originated remains timeless." -- Chicago Tribune "Not your ordinary book...A peek at another side of America." -- Tulsa World "A ripping good read...as gripping a tale as you would expect from the most famous pack of all time." -- New Times Los Angeles "Barger paints an engrossing picture of a distinctive subculture that receives precious little literary attention." -- Booklist, The hombre who gave you motorcycle culture.The biker style that Barger originated remains timeless.

Synopsis
Everything the public thinks it knows about the Hell's Angels Motorcycle Club (HAMC) comes from law enforcement, Hollywood B-movies, tabloid exposes, or exaggerated I was there testimonials. Never before has the story of this uniquely American subculture and the wild, dangerous life of quintessential Angel Ralph Sonny Barger been chronicled with such hard-hitting honesty and candor--straight from the source. Finally, the Angels' side of the story has been laid out by one of their own. Hell's Angel provides a fascinating all-access pass to the secret world of the notorious HAMC, recounting the birth of the original Oakland Hell's Angels and the four turbulent, tumultuous decades that followed. It features a cast of colorful fellow one-percenters like Terry the Tramp, Charlie Magoo, and all those who rode alongside Barger throughout the years. Hell's Angel also chronicles the way the HAMC revolutionized the look of the Harley-Davidson motorcycle and built what has become a worldwide bike-riding fraternity, a beacon for freedom seekers the world over. In his own words, Barger recounts his relentless battles against government efforts to destroy the HAMC, explains what happened in the standoff between the Hell's Angels and the 1960s antiwar elite, and tells the real story behind the infamous 1969 Rolling Stones concert at Altamont Raceway, an epochal moment that came to symbolize the end of the sixties. This epic saga provides insight into the personal life of a charismatic visionary who embodies values uniquely American: personal liberty on the open highway, beating the odds, staying on top, and never backing down. Dozens of photos, including many from private collections--as well as images shot by noted photographers--provide added dimensions to this extraordinary tale. Barger's stories highlight the personal triumphs as well as the rough-and-tumble tragedies of his life: constant battles with law enforcement, incarceration, overcoming throat cancer, love and marriage, and continuing to live the biker life--still crazy after all these years. And Hell's Angel doesn't gloss over heated topics such as violence, drugs, and the strong women who always stood behind Barger and the club. Never simply a story about motorcycles, colorful characters, and high-speed thrills, Hell's Angel is the ultimate outlaw's tale of loyalty and betrayal, subcultures and brotherhood, and the real price of freedom., The only authorized, authentic book about the Hell's Angels by founding member, Sonny Barger Hell's Angel chronicles the origins and rise of the Hell's Angels Motorcycle Club through the eyes of its founding member. Sonny Barger started the Oakland chapter of the Hell's Angels in the late 50s with a loose-knit group of high school dropouts and social outcasts. Bonded by the love of motorcycles, they formed a cadre of hard-driving hombres and answered the call of the open road. Hell's Angel is not only a story of motorcycles, it is a tale of loyalty and betrayal, subcultures and brotherhood and freedom. It is Sonny's fight for personal freedom and his right to exist with a band of individuals who choose an alternative life., Everything the public thinks it knows about the Hell's Angels Motorcycle Club (HAMC) comes from law enforcement, Hollywood B-movies, tabloid exposes, or exaggerated "I was there" testimonials. Never before has the story of this uniquely American subculture and the wild, dangerous life of quintessential Angel Ralph "Sonny" Barger been chronicled with such hard-hitting honesty and candor--straight from the source. Finally, the Angels' side of the story has been laid out by one of their own.

    Excellent seller. Came several days sooner than expected, package was securely wrapped and protected. Very open about the condition of the book in the listing – book appeared better than I anticipated, no notable wear other than typical page yellowing from age. Pages all completely intact, no bends. Until this seller, I’ve had no luck finding this book used at a price I was willing to pay. Great price, awesome item. Thank you again for helping me find something I’ve wanted for a long time.

    There's nothing like getting a scary item like a Stephen King book in the mailbox. Of all the authors out there, I like King most due to be exceptionally entertaining. The shipping and packaging were excellent. Everything was as described too. I would highly recommend this seller.

  • A collection of stories as Sonny remembers them.

    I thought it was going to be more historical about the origins of the Club and, in a way, I guess it kind of is, but it's more a collection of Sonny's recollections of events over the years including a brief insight into his childhood. I was looking for more of a nuts and bolts book covering the Club from inception through 2002(edition date of book).
