Serge Bueno and Gilles Lhote
Rezensionen
"To showcase his work, Bueno worked with French journalist and author Gilles Lhote to produce a stunning and thick book featuring 40 of the motorcycles Bueno has restored, bikes ranging chronologically from a 1905 Peugeot factory racer to a 1955 Norton Manx 350. In between there are Indians and Harleys, Excelsiors and BMWs, and perhaps a few from motorcycle manufacturers you ll be encountering for the first time. The photography is beautiful, the text is informative, and the paper is so thick as to add a luscious quality to the presentation." Larry Edsall, The Journal ClassicCars.com

"Bueno and Lhote offer a comprehensive celebration of the art and design of classic motorcycles, from the early 20th century through the 1950s. The 300 color photographs included showcase the art and design of the luxury motorcycle by presenting 40 rare and exceptional motorcycles, from 1905 to 1956, presented in chronological order, illustrated with studio photographs that present the machines as works of art and wonders of design in themselves. An international roster is featured, including a 1905 Peugeot Factory Racer, a 1916 Indian PowerPlus, a 1929 Majestic, a 1936 Excelsior Manxman, a 1951 Harley Davidson 750CC WR, a 1951 Vincent1000CC Black Shadow, and a 1955 Triumph Tiger Cub, among others. Written by a motorcycle collector and expert, the text is accompanied by detailed images and covers each bike s background and feats of design and engineering, as well as recounting tales of classic races, rallies, and motorcycle shows. The book is enhanced with reproductions of period ads and historic photos, evoking a sense of time and place." PUBLISHERS WEEKLY…mehr
