| | Description | Narrated by the visionary founding member, Hell's Angel provides a fascinating all-access pass to the secret world of the notorious Hell's Angels Motorcycle Club. Sonny Barger recounts the birth of the original Oakland Hell's Angels and the four turbulent decades that followed. Hell's Angel also chronicles the way the HAMC revolutionized the look of the Harley-Davidson motorcycle and built what has become a worldwide bike-riding fraternity, a beacon for freedom-seekers the world over.Dozens of photos, including many from private collections and from noted photographers, provide visual documentation to this extraordinary tale. Never simply a story about motorcycles, colorful characters, and high-speed thrills, Hell's Angel is the ultimate outlaw's tale of loyalty and betrayal, subcultures and brotherhood, and the real price of freedom. | |

Tame for what it is Sep 07, 2010
This book is a mixture of random stories of adventures of a famous biker. It reminds me of an old man sitting around telling stories of his wild and woolies. I bought the book because of the stigma around this man and personal stories that were told to me. If you are in to the biker lifestyle, then it is worth the read.
 Worth Reading Aug 24, 2010
I read this book several years ago and got the urge to read it again. Even the second
time around I found it hard to put down. It is interesting to hear another side to the HAMC than the media hype we have been fed for years.
Very Good Jul 29, 2010
Book was shipped out pretty fast. It was at a good price and in very good condition.
Psycology of an outlaw Jul 13, 2010
First of all thanks to Sonny for being candid and sincere in his memoirs. I think this is a real story of an outlaw biker and biker clup. This is thus a wonderfull book to read to let you get an insider view of the Hell's Angels clup.
In subtsance, on the other hand, I did not buy his story of getting together in the clup for just making fun. No offence to him or to his friends but it seems to me that this clup was a collection of irresponsible people towards the society. They played childish games and behaved immature. For example they overvalued their patches in a way that only a 10 year old boy can do. The worst they can even kill people for offending the patch. A Pieace of cloth does not worth this much value...They sold drugs, fought people, etc... I did not like this part. I am a biker, but belong to remaining 99%; responsible to the society and always keen to observe the rules. Any one who will read this book should not pretend to be like Sonny at that times.
I also felt pitty about Sharon, who sacrificied her life for Sonny but kicked out in the end- another irresponsible behavior from Sonny. Sharon, with such a beauty, could have lived a different life...
All in all, I think Sonny felt guilty what he had done in the past and tried to give a good message with this book to the society with sincere confession so that new generation does not follow his path and become one percenter. I thank to Sonny for this book and his sincere confessions and I will recommend the book to my son to get some lessons from his story...
Tremendous Life Narrative Jul 13, 2010
Hell's Angel is a widely entertaining romp through American history written in a way that you just can't get enough of and leaves you wanting more.
Outlaw is a only a word and justice has long departed from our legal system. Barger makes no excuses for standing up for what he believes in and stand up he does for his beliefs and those of his friends. Here is a man who doesn't just talk about having a code to live by, he lives by it and has proven time and again he is willing to risk the freedom he loves so dearly for his beliefs. Whether you agree or disagree with his philosphy, he is one the few and last true examples of what made America great.
