About this title: The autobiography -- the dangerous life and wild times -- of Sonny Barger, the legendary leader of the Hell's Angels. Sonny Barger is the Hell's Angel of all Hell's Angels, the motorcycle club that has been the scourge of America for over forty years. Sonny was their de facto leader for much of that time, the man who Hunter S. Thompson immortalised in his 1965 classic Hells Angels, noting 'Barger is nothing short of Winston Churchill when it comes to leading people'.

"A look inside the head of an outlaw motorcyclist and con boss. It's an interesting read if you're interested in such stuff. Allowing for the fact that a man like Sonny Barger would get locked up for life (or killed) if he ever told the whole truth in print, there is truth in his book if you take it just so: Deacon Solomon recommends two grains of salt and a double-shot of motor oil laced with gallows humor."
"Sonny Barger is one tough dude. I now understand what it takes to become a Hell's Angel and it's not only a MC but a brotherhood. A good read and not only informative but entertaining."
"I always love to read stories about and/or set it in Oakland, and the late 60's had to have been one of most historically interesting episodes in Oakland's development of identity. That being said, the story of the birth of the Hells Angels and their "to hell with the cops" mentality gave me pause about the current implications of that historical conflict on our community's continued struggle with the police and other authorities. And since I'm not a fan of "The Bad-Ass" per se, a history of how that particular group of people came to be was, at least, predictable. Interesting, though sometimes maddening, to read."
