| A stunt man and side show performer, Indian Larry Desmedt is best remembered for his remarkable custom motorcycles, his wild tattoos and his love for building and riding rolling art. This book, by those who knew him best, offers a closer look at the life that made Larry into the chopper shaman so many admired. Full of photographs that document a uniquely colourful life, the book follows Larry from his humble beginnings to his unlikely stardom. It traces his short career as a bank robber, his time in prison, his spiral downward into heroin addiction and his rebirth in 1994 as the spiritual bike builder revered by so many and running through it all, the love of hot rods and motorcycles that finally brought him happiness.
