Customer comments on this selection.
Cafe Rockers Unite! Neat book about the lives of rockers and racers in the 60's. Basically a look at what was going on in europe during the greaser era in America.
Best book ever written on the subject Rockers! is a great nostalgic ride that takes the reader through the history of British motorcycling at its finest hour.
If you are a fan of the days of the teddy boys (the precursor to today's rockabilly revival) and have a love for the mighty British bikes such as Triumph, BSA, and Norton, you will love this book.
Rockers! is also an excellent companion tome to Richard Barnes' Mods! (the definitive history of the great "opposing force" to the rockers in 60's England).
Rockers! is well-written, researched in minute detail and loaded with great photographs.
Makes me long for my old '67 Triumph Tiger . . .

Rockers! rock Rocker! is a very interesting about the people who were the rockers. This is not a motorcycle book, per se, but a book about motorcyclists of the '60s who lived in a world devoted to motorcycles, a book about kids who wanted to have a good time without going over the edge in rebelliousness, but liked the power of the machine and image of "Bad Boy." I would recommend this book to anyone interested in the life style of the Ton-up boys.
