Ever since the original appearance of their first single-cylinder engine, followed by their twin cylinders, the Harley-Davidson has distinguished itself by imposing its models, owing to their trustworthiness and endurance, and then because of how many competitions they won.

All you need to do is climb into the saddle and rev up a Harley-Davidson to discover a new motorcycling universe, where the concept of pleasure reveals its full meaning.

And this is the universe that this book invites you to discover, through the history of the brand's main models, embodying nearly 110 years of motorcycling adventures, touching upon tourism, sport, customization, and the simple and outright passion for motorcycles.

Cruise through this collection of Harley-Davidson's most iconic motorcycles!

When most people imagine a motorcycle, chances are they picture a Harley-Davidson. That's because Harley-Davidson machines look the way the primordial biker inside each of us feels a motorcycle should look. In short, Harley-Davidson makes mythic bikes. Harley-Davidson: The Complete History celebrates these iconic motorcycles, presenting them all in one beautifully illustrated book.

The most beloved and recognizable motorcycles are included here: the Knucklehead, the Panhead, the Peashooter, the KR, the Sportster, the XR750, the Shovelhead, the Evolution, the Twin Cam, the V-Rod, and all the rest. Pages in the book reveal historic images as well as modern photos from the top motorcycle photographers working today. Additionally, there are chapters from some of the most celebrated motorcycle writers of all time -- Peter Egan, Kevin Cameron, Ed Youngblood, Allan Girdler, Steve Anderson, and many more. All of this material combines to tell the story of every major motorcycle that Harley-Davidson has built, from the very first prototype to the Silent Gray Fellow to the latest liquid-cooled CVO Electra Glides and Softails. Harley-Davidson: The Complete History is the ultimate history of the ultimate motorcycle company.

To call it a legend is almost an understatement. After more than 50 years of model history, the one millionth Porsche 911 rolled off the production line in May 2017. The number of its fans is many times higher - because the "911" from Zuffenhausen is the epitome of the sports car. And predestined to wave the starting flag for the exciting teNeues book series IconiCars. Even the beginning of the story is worthy of myth.

On 12 September 1963, Porsche presented the 901 model at the IAA in Frankfurt. When series production began the following year, the 901 became the 911, as Peugeot had had all three-digit type designations with a zero in the middle protected. The design of the sports car, for which Ferdinand Alexander Porsche was responsible, provided the stuff of chrome dreams.

________

Not only with its innovative technology, striking design and successes in major international racing events - from the 24 Hours of Daytona to the Monte Carlo Rally - has the Porsche 911 left and continues to leave a powerful tyre mark. The pop-cultural impact is also immense. Celebrities such as Arnold Schwarzenegger and Bill Gates have come out as enthusiasts. Steve McQueen drove it in the classic Le Mans.

This exciting book covers design and model history, and includes the most important technical data.

________

- For eternity: the first volume of the IconiCars series illuminates the many facets of an evergreen on four wheels with expert knowledge and exciting texts.
- For the fanbase: this book is for all those who join 911 clubs and meet on 911 forums, for collectors and enthusiasts
- For the eye: exciting archive photographs and impressive photos by René Staud (his bestseller The Porsche 911 Book sold over 30,000 copies) provide the external values.

In his unique photo journey, Dieter Klein travels to remote corners of Europe and the United States to find abandoned cars in forgotten places. In shabby backyards and dusty barns, in deserted fields and thick forests, Klein roams strange and isolated places to find once gleaming vehicles left to rust and ruin. From a dented Porsche to a faded Cadillac, a battered VW Beetle to a whole fleet of abandoned military jeeps, Klein's subjects creak with bygone glamour and might. As moss and gnarled branches transform motors into eerie artifacts, Klein's award-winning automobile photography is not only a tribute to classic cars, but also to the transformative power of nature and the enduring intrigue of people and incidents unknown.

This book presents an anthology of classic custom-built cars, produced since the 1950s as one-offs or in a very limited number. Rare cars, little advertised and often jealously guarded in private collections, when they did not just mysteriously disappear altogether. These elegant and extrovert cars are examples of a concept of luxury that cannot be measured merely in terms of a market, but rather in terms of pure exclusiveness.
