Bike Shed Library: Pete Cave’s Chopper

by | 5th, January 2015

On Flashbak, Ed Barrett is building a Bike Shed Library.

First book is No. 1: Chopper by Pate Cave (NEL, 1971):

Chopper1

 

In the days when Ron ‘Chopper’ Harris was bestriding Stamford Bridge, another Chopper Harris was enthralling the juvenile delinquents of Great Britain with a different brand of violence.

This Chopper was the number two in a London-based chapter of the Hell’s Angels. Or should that be ‘NEL’s Angels’? Because, make no mistake, this bears the classic New English Library hallmarks of lurid sensationalism and dubious authenticity.

Read it all on Flashbak…
