The Harley-Davidson Book - Refueled presents the history, lifestyle, and unique attitude towards life of the American motorcycle brand in a 32-page expanded and revised new edition.

What comes to mind first when you hear the name Harley-Davidson? Freedom, speed, roaring engines, and passion on two wheels. No other motorcycle brand in the world has the almost mystical reputation of a Harley-Davidson. For over a hundred years, this American classic from Milwaukee has shaped the motorcycle world. The fascination revolves around the typical 45-degree V2 engine. While single-cylinder engines have come and gone from the Harley lineup over time, the two-cylinder engine is its defining style. Like a sculpture, it sits deep within the intricate tubular steel frame—an aesthetic revelation... and an auditory one too. Once you've heard the sound of an early "knucklehead," you're addicted for life! This is a book about the power and beauty of the engines and the elegance and strength of these machines from Lake Michigan. It is a homage to the flatheads, knuckleheads, panheads, ironheads, the shovels and evolutions, and the contemporary fuel injectors. And at the same time, it is a presentation of the water-cooled V2, the Street models, the electrified Live-Wire, and the new Harley motorcycle genres: the naked bike "Bronx," the large enduro "Pan America," and medium-heavy e-bikes.

German photographer Thomas Hoepker (1936) has had a strong connection with New York since the late 1960s. For over fifty years, he commuted between Germany and The Big Apple, where he held various roles, from correspondent for Stern and Art Director to Magnum photographer. Like Elliott Erwitt, Hoepker feels most at home in the vibrant street life, where he enjoys capturing the crowds and anonymous individuals, each carrying their own stories.

The second edition of Hoepker's New York, published by teNeues, includes 16 additional pages and 37 new, previously unpublished images covering the period from 1960 to 2019. Hoepker captures people and their way of life in an unfiltered and direct manner, while also showcasing the photographer's own artistic development.

The photos, sourced from Hoepker's extensive archive, vary widely in style, from black-and-white formats to color and architectural photographs, as well as vivid street snapshots. As poet and Pulitzer Prize winner Charles Simic aptly describes, Hoepker's photos capture moments of beauty and shock that even the most sensitive observer might overlook, which enhances the pleasure and impact of viewing the images in this book.

Experience the vibrant soul of New York through the iconic images of Elliott Erwitt, who has been capturing the city since 1948. His photographs capture unexpected, everyday moments with a unique irony, from celebrity encounters to striking street scenes.

This revised edition unveils Erwitt's timeless work, with the addition of previously unreleased images from the 1950s and 60s. From playful humor to deep emotion, his photographs bring the essence of the city and its inhabitants to life.

Elliott Erwitt’s New York is the last book the photographer personally worked on before his death on November 29, 2023, at the age of 95.
