American police motorcycles built between the early 1900s and the 1980s are featured in this tribute, as historical and archival photographs -- along with firsthand anecdotes -- tell the story of these two-wheeled workhorses. Lovell includes Harley-Davidsons, Indians, and lesser-known manufacturers such as Pope and Ace. With the cooperation of motorcycle police associations around the country, the author includes numerous firsthand accounts by retired motorcycle officers who rode some of the featured models. Ponch and Jon of "CHiPs" would be all smiles after reading this book.

Lovell, Buck

Scratch built motorcycles remain very popular. In order to simplify the process, many companies in the American V-twin aftermarket are selling kits. Three of these companies, Custom Chrome, Arlen Ness and Biker1s Choice, have excellent programs. All offer very complete kits that allow the builder to assemble a complete motorcycle without any additional purchases. All that1s missing is labor and paint. The book will document, with detailed photos and copy, the assembly from beginning to end, of three motorcycles from the firms mentioned above. Because of the technical nature of this book, there will be more images and less copy than in other Wolfgang Publication books. Each sequence will be illustrated by at least 200 images. Approximately 60% of these images will be in color. This book will also contain side-bars on tools and basic assembly techniques, all designed to aid the first time builder.

How exactly does Eric Herrmann create the wonderful two-wheeled images that hang everywhere from bank lobbies to biker garages? Eric uses the first chapters to explain what he uses for paint, brushes, canvas, and why. The bulk of this book is made up of chapters built around a series of famous Eric Herrmann images. Find out where Eric found the inspiration for Dangerous, Wired or Crank_n, how he planned each image, and how the image developed on canvas. Part biography and part hands-on how-to manual, Eric uses one chapter to document the creation of a painting, brush stroke by brush stroke. Sequential photos illustrate each step of the painting process. This great all-color book is both a must-have for Eric's fans, and a very useful teaching tool for aspiring artists.
