The Life and Times of Sonny Barger and the Hell's Angels Motorcycle Club
As he chronicles the origins and rise of the Hell's Angels Motorcycle Club (HAMC), Sonny Barger shares his memories of its most famous and outrageous members and reveals the inner workings of the club - the rites and rituals, rules and regulations that maintain the HAMC as an unwavering democratic brotherhood. Here, too, are eye-popping tales of murder, substance abuse and violent mayhem; anti-war clashes and Summer of Love flashbacks: the death of peace and love at the disastrous Altamont Rolling Stones concert; ongoing battles with law enforcement; incarceration; love and marriage; and how the biker life is still crazy after all these years.
A tale of loyalty and betrayal, brotherhood and liberation, 'Hell's Angel' is the story of Sonny's fight for personal freedom and his right to exist with a band of compadres who choose to live the outlaw life on the open road - a quintessentially American state of mind.
