Connected by the Street: The Myths and Realities of Motorcyclists in the USA and Italy
In the United States, motorcyclists are often cast as outlaws, while in Italy riding is part of everyday life. Connected by the Street traces more than a century of motorcycling in both countries, revealing the myths and realities behind these images. From war and industry to tourism and social media, the book shows how riding shapes culture across the Atlantic. Challenging clichés of danger and rebellion, it highlights community, safety, and discovery—offering an engaging cultural history for riders and anyone drawn to the motorcycle mystique. 204pp, text in English and Italian, profusely illustrated.
Dr. Wendy Pojmann, Ph.D., is Professor of History at Siena University in Albany, New York.
