Fabulous Pictures
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
Ok, I'm not giving this one 5 stars b/c I'm pictured in the book, but because it is a great visual story of the great sport of NASCAR. Since the fans are heart of NASCAR, it is essential that they have a place in this book. Scott did a fabulous job (aside from spelling my name wrong even after he verified it-typo?) The crisp, bright pictures pull you in with each viewing.

If you love Talladega, Bristol, Lowe's Motor Speedway and all those other haunts where NASCAR is a religious experience, then you will enjoy seeing Scott Robinson's up-close and personal images of the real people who make auto racing an authentic part of life in the United States in the early twenty-first century. Robinson's camera lens has a point of view that is at once affectionate and straightforward. He neither condescends nor fawns, but he does thoroughly document with the fervor of a true believer in NASCAR.
A fresh perspective

Scott Robinson's photographs and essays provide a fresh and welcome perspective on the world of NASCAR, one that is more personal and intimate than I'd previously seen. I enjoyed his photographs tremendously, and found the essays insightful and engaging. The pictures are both vivid and warm, and anyone who has even a passing interest in auto racing and NASCAR is going to love this book!

Outstanding coverage of the "other side" of a great subject. Very impressive that Mr. Robinson did the writing as well as the visual reporting. Nice visual rhythm page after page. He has captured some wonderful "blink-of-the-eye" moments to savor again and again. judy sawyer & chip maury send

Even though my husband and I aren't great NASCAR fans, this book has inspired us to become much more interested in the sport and its people. Every time we pick it up, we see something new. Great job!
