About this ebook

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.

No rocket science here, just a fun quick read. This is the tale of a true motorcycle outlaw legend and the life he's led. It's a cautionary tale about a man regularly on the wrong side of the law and his views on six decades of living and shaping motorcycle culture.

A must read for anyone who rides a bike and has even a touch of rebel in them. Sonny Barger is quite a funny man in this masterpiece of true American history. I laughed out loud many times while reading only to look up at my wife or coworkers faces of that familiar 'WTF?'. This is one of, if not THE, best books I have ever had the pleasure of reading. God bless the Hells Angels and Sonny Barger!
