The Book is Out, Congrats to Charlie & Jennifer

Book Cover.jpgCharlie St. Clair and Jennifer Anderson have written a book covering the history of Laconia Bike Week and they have done a great job. 
Through words and pictures they will bring you through the history of the Gypsy Tour beginnings, through the Belknap Recreation Area (Gunstock) and into The Modern Era. Although many of the pictures outdate me or when I first moved here in the late 70's, it is exciting to see some of the things I remember from so long ago and to realized just how much has changed.
The photographs used are from both the Historical Society and from many private collections. It is exciting to read the words used to describe the time these pictures were taken in both the narrative and captions.
Of course all of us who live in the area know Charlie and Jennifer through their involvement in the Laconia Motorcycle Week Association, so it is only natural that they put this wonderful book together.

Available with the purchase of the book is a set of 15 postcards containing different pictures that are included in the pages of the book. I would encourage you to contact Charlie, Jennifer or Arcadia Publishing to purchase your own copy of the book. It will be a collectors item soon.
If you are reading this post today i would also encourage you to head down to the Black Cat tomorrow (May 27th) where Charlie will be having a book signing from 11:30AM - 1PM. Hope to see you there.
