Customer Reviews
Forty Years of Motorsport Photography
Excellent. All 87 pages of fine art photographs look amazing on the iPad. The images are enhanced with audio commentary from the photographer. This is the best photography book available for the iPad and one of the many good reasons to justify owning one. Worth every penny.
This book is way cool.
This is not just any E-book. I think it really represents the future of photographic e-books. The voice over of the photographer telling the story behind each image is so powerful, because it transforms this from a photographic book, to an engaging story as told by the man who saw it all through his lens. It feels like more like an interview in his home. I am so impressed with this book and thankful for its publication. The voice over, the fixed layout style, and the content make this an outstanding example of the next generation of photographic publications. Ebook Artist has done it again!

This book is beautiful and put together in such a unique and professional way. What a life Jesse must have had - and the ebook artist knew how to capture the essence of it all. Very interesting and artfully done.
