History of Choppers takes a good look at the combination of sculpture, attitude, and individuality known as the Chopper. It is a living history, cobbled together from the fact, anecdotes, half-truths, and tall tales. From biker beginnings to moving right into mainstream, the myths and mysteries surrounding the motorcycle are presented here. There is a serious look at how the media influences public perceptions, as well as a complete background on biker gangs, legitimate or otherwise.
