5.0 out of 5 stars
Wonderful and in a class of it's own!,
By Jon Ward (Ft. Pierce, FL United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Live Steam: Paddlewheel Steamboats on the Mississippi System (Hardcover)
"Live Steam" arrived today and it is absolutely fabulous. The pictures are breathtaking and showcase so many interesting aspects of the working steamboat and the people behind the scenes. Even the simplest task is brought to life with this book. The black and white portrayal in these photos is more vivid and colorful than any technicolor presentation could be of the same images. You have created a beautiful piece of art. We think the book is wonderful and in a class of it's own. You said you expected this book to surpass the previous two books and we think you have definitely done that with "Live Steam"!

Blends history with art and photography,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Live Steam: Paddlewheel Steamboats on the Mississippi System (Hardcover)
Live Steam blends history with art and photography, providing a visual examination of paddlewheel steamboats on the Mississippi River which is photographed aboard all six remaining steamboats. Live Steam profiles not just the boats but their inner operations: while the approach is visual with brown duotones providing glimpses of operations and operators, it provides an important documentary of modern steamboat operations.
