    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.

    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.

    If you’re either a motorcycle enthusiast or a librarian catering to such, make it a point to consider MOTORCYCLE: EVOLUTION, DESIGN, PASSION. It’s an oversized, definitive guide to motorbike design and goes beyond the usual showcase of bikes to tap into the wellspring of knowledge and life experience of motorcycle racer and historian Mike Walker. Motorcycle history and evolution are covered in a particularly notable set of vintage photos and historical review, making for a unique and valuable collection addition.
