Reviews
'The greatest strength of Wolf's work is the insight it gives into the mind-set of bikers. He makes one understand the importance that gang members attach to activities such as initiations, runs, and club meetings. He vividly portrays the pain and hardship that bikers endure to hold membership in a select and cohesive outlaw club...The book is outstanding because of the author's authenticity in two areas: He is a bona fide anthropologist and also a real biker. He knows both subcultures from the inside.' -- Columbus B. Hopper * Journal of Contemporary Ethnography *
