Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
Scooters and scootering are the fastest growing segment of the American motorcycling market. Because of their low cost, ease of operation, and unintimidating nature, scooters are especially appealing to new riders. This book will provide the scooter owner with everything he or she needs to know. It will tell a person what kind of scooter to buy, how to buy it, and where to buy it. It will instruct the owner on maintaining and customizing his or her scooter. It will even help the scooterist find scooter-related events and activities. In sum, this is all the book any scooter owner will ever need.

After reading this book one could be mistaken that scooters were invented in America and that the cushman is a popular scooter known the world over. The influence of the japanese and others seems to be totally down graded to less than one paragraph. Any scooter buff worth his/ her weight would be offended at the american bias that this "publication" sprouts. Never have I been so annoyed at the total brainwashing that seems to be portrayed here. If this is what Americans need to make them feel better then I suppose it has some use. As for the title; everything you need to know.... what a lot of crock.
Of course this is only my opinion... I suppose it is just as biased as many of the publications that think the vespa is the only scooter, It would have been nice to read information that I could use. Oh well, back to the bookstore.

It is a corruption of the review process when the previous reviewer posts a review dated July 1998 for a book not published until January 2006.

Just when I thought nothing could top the Dregni's earlier book (Illustrated MotorScooter Buyer's Guide), they have come up with another masterpiece with their new book Scooters! In Scooters! the authors trace the history and development of the scooter and make an ambitious endeavor to show the effect of the scooter on society and popular culture. The book boldy attempts a full tour de force of the wonderful world of scooters and scootering.... Visually, the book is dazzling. Drawing from archival photos, advertisements, and brochures, many long forgotten or unknown images appear for the very first time. Like the text, the photographs are often whimsical and endeavor to cover the full panorama of scootering....If you are looking for a book to introduce a friend to the joys and romance of scootering, this is definitely the book. Quite possible, it is the best scootering book of all time. --John Gerber, American Scooterist magazine, Autumn 1996
