Product Description:
Photographer Andrew Shaylor was given unique access, over several years, to the secret world of the Hells Angels Motorcycle Club. He set out to assemble a truthful depiction of this much misunderstood group, and the result is a remarkable collection of photographs. Now available in paperback for the first time, Shaylor's powerfully honest portraits show the diversity of the club's members, while images of important HAMC events give fascinating insights into a club that has remained closed to outsiders... until now. Over 300 stunning photographs - including new images appearing for the first time in this edition - reveal the rich diversity of the HAMC. It features HAMC events, members' motorcycles, clubhouses, over 100 incisive portraits and a multitude of details that uniquely define HAMC culture. It contains a specially commissioned foreword by Sonny Barger, internationally well-known and respected member of the HAMC.

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Coffee-Table picture book of Canadian Angels
Hells Angels Motorcycle ClubSimply put this is a picture book of Canada's Hells Angels with a brief history of the clubs expansion there. The photos are excellent and offer a study of the complex 'face' of the brotherhood that is the fabric of the Club. The motorcycles and the 'ole-ladies' featured are secondary to the 'artsy' mug-shots of the members. A good book to have around illustrating the 'outlaws' of today; especially for the priest or the mother-in-law to peruse as they wait in the parlor ... Read More
Rating:  - Pics of guys....ok.
This book is simply a compilation of portaits, most taken in a studio of Hell's Angels from europe. It looks more like a reference of who's who for law enforcement. I was hoping for more action shots, more candid stuff of the Hell's Angels riding and hanging out. I don't really care for a head shot book...just boring. Don't waste your money unless you're buying my copy.....
Rating:  - Before you buy, Be Aware!
This book is not what you think! Great photo's, great stories, but come on, not a SINGLE photo or info on the original and FAR better known US based Hells Angels. The entire book cover to cover is ONLY UK BASED ANGELS!. No disrespect to them and if you are from the UK, the book is great. But to those in the US who want to see pictures of the legends and hear about the dozens of stories of the original Angels, this book is a major letdown. NOTHING on the cover of the book nor in the book description ... Read More
Rating: - Bike photos
If you want to look at pictures of bikers, and their families, many just like olan mills portrait style, then buy this book. Not much narrative. Forward by Sonny.
Rating:  - A "must have" for any biker
A very interresting book, or I better say whitness of who aree these persons (ie all different), and what's their kind of life as Hells Angels, as the author took his time to know some of them, and be known by them.
The photographs are stunning and very important to help the reader understanding what this club is and is not.
Buy it, put it on a wishlist, but find a way to have it ! It's not the kind of book you read only once: You'll be back in it from times to time...
