The Complete Book of Police and Military Motorcycles
by Joseph Berk
From Pittsburgh's adoption of motorcycles for police use in 1909 to Gen. John J. "Black Jack" Pershing's 1916 pursuit of Pancho Villa into Mexican territory on Harley-Davidsons, Indians and Excelsiors to the deployment of motorcycles in both world wars, this book tells the fascinating tale of these magnificent machines from their 20th century beginnings to their current use by police departments and militaries throughout the world. Joseph Berk, author of The Gatling Gun, explores every aspect of police and military motorcycles, including the history of their manufacture by Harley-Davidson, Indian, Kawasaki, BMW, Honda and others; details of their procurement by selected U.S. police departments; critiques of the "Big Three" police models employed in the United States from officers who have put them to the test; a detailed outline of the intensive 10-day training program required of U.S. motor officers; an inside look at how specific police departments from Atlanta to L.A. utilize motorcycles on a day-to-day basis; and a look at the specific makes and models used by Special Forces and other military units from World War I through the turn of the century and beyond.

The Winged Wheel Patch, A History of the Canadian Military Motorcycle and Rider
by Max A Burns, Ken C. Messenger
The lack of any public recognition for the efforts and sacrifices of Canadian motorcycle riders during wartime has been a source of frustration for some veterans. The Winged Wheel Patch corrects the oversight with a lavish presentation of rare photography and an abundantly detailed record about the Canadian experience on military motorcycles. It's a large-format 8 1/2 x 11 hardcover book printed on glossy paper, and the reproduction of the photography is particularly good. The Winged Wheel Patch and its authors deserve praise for gathering together what otherwise threatened to slip through the cracks of time. In words and pictures, the fragile history of the Canadian military bike and rider has been carefully sheltered between the covers of this book. (Bruce Reeve, Cycle Canada Magazine, Nov-Dec/93)
