5 out of 5 stars Facts between the Facts   April 8, 2005

A great read. Worth the price, if you like Indian and Harley history. Turns out that Paul du Pont was actuallly a "wrench" disguised as a "suit". Many first read stories within the covers. 5-stars for research.


5 out of 5 stars Very good history of a great rivalry.   February 2, 1999

As someone who is interested with the people racing the machines I was a little disappointed with the book. While it gives a very good, concise history of the two brands and the men that ran the companies it really does not focus that much on the racers who played out the rivalry on the boards, dirt tracks and hills. The book also seems to focus on the Indian Company more than the Harley company. Naturally one finds themselves rooting for the underdog Indian to find them loosing out in the end. I definately recommend this book for people interested in the history of these companies.
