A well written and informative history of H-D. December 23, 1997 20 out of 21 found this review helpful
This, in my opinion, is one of the better books on H-D. There is enough material to satisfy your historical palate, but not so much that you feel bogged down with to many details. If incredible historical detail is what your after, get Harry Sucher's book "H-D, the Milwaukee Marvel." Leffingwell's book is easy and enjoyable reading, with lots of good color photos to go along. I would have liked a little more information on the founders of H-D; more detail on how they shaped the company policies and what had become of them. Also, it would have been nice to have gotten more on the changes in the evolution engine. But over-all, a very enjoyable book. (incidently, the title is "H-D, 'History' and Mystique," not "Myth" and Mystique.
