This is the complete history of the motorcycles produced by the Curtiss company from 1902 to 1912. In these pages, readers will learn: the history of all the motorcycles engineered and built by Glenn Curtiss - including the Hercules, Erie, Marvel, and Curtiss models - and why they are still collectible and sought after today; how Glenn Curtiss went from building motorcycles in his home shop to an engineering and aviation icon; and how Curtiss's work with motorcycles served as a gateway to his later engineering work on balloons, travel and commercial trailers, airplanes, and other projects. Included are more than 100 photos, most of which are rarely seen vintage photos from the archives of the Curtiss Museum.
