Motorcycle: Evolution, Design, Passion

great book on bikes

I got this book as a Christmas gift for my dad who is a motorcycle enthusiast. It's very nice. It has lots of historical data about all types of motorcycles. The best part by far is the pictures. Very, very nice pictures from all eras of the motorcycle spanning many different styles. The pictures are high quality and all of the color pictures are quite pleasing to the eyes.A great book for any motorcycle fan.

My son was very pleased with this gift. He is an ardent reader of classic and older model bikes. He practically read it from cover to cover in one day! Shipped quickly and well packaged.

This books is cool for any motorcycle rider you know. I bought it as a gift for someone and looked through it. Interesting pictures and good information.

I have five of Mick Walker's books including three in his series on racing motorcycles from various countries and all are vastly better than this volume. The treatment of each subject covered in this book is superficial, the pictures are predictable and there are not enough to make it a real "coffee table book". As a shallow survey of motorcycle design, history, and personalities it is OK, but for any real enthusiast it is seriously lacking in substantial content . I hope Walker did not write the picture captions as they are full of errors, often obvious just from looking at the picture. All told, this book was a big disappointment and a sad coda to Walker's exceptional career as a motorcycle writer.

We bought this for my father for Christmas. He's a motorcycle enthusiast and just loves the beauty of the machines themselves. He loved this book. The pictures are vibrant and just beautiful. The book is also laden with interesting facts and history. "Motorcycle: Evolution, Design, Passion" is a great addition to any motorcycle fan's library.

My 37 year old son is enjoying it.

Perfect

This book is a genuine treat! A treasure drove of motorcycling excellence with dynamic photos on high quality stock paper. Very rich throughout! I have a great library on bikes, but it honestly wouldn't be complete without this one.

Awesome colored pictures of the history of differant makes and models.Good reading for anyone interested in the evolution of the motorcycle.
