Hey! Harley - Paperback

by Dan Thompson (Author)

The open road, gasoline dripping from the pump, the smell of iced coffee with just a hint of tire rubber and the sound of an engine roaring like a panther whose foot has just been stepped on. Harley and his feline compadre ride the roads of life like champions in their first reprint collection
