late forties dry lake hot rodding

this is a real nice photo book of the late forties dry lake hot rod history. The numerous high quality (mostly in colour) pictures of this era give a real nice flavour. The pictures were taken by a professional photographer and it shows, this is not your fuzzy, discoloured family photo album. Together with the text (short stories from numerous participants of that era) gives this book a real good impression. Recommended.
