It Could be better,

This review is from: Visions of Wimbledon: A Celebration of the World's Finest Wimbledon Photography (Allsport Photographic Agency) (Hardcover)
Visions of Wimbledon is a cool book, but I was expecting much more of it. There are cool pictures, but I missed more detailed photos and articles about legendary matches, like Bjorg X McEnroe.You won't find much information, but it's not a GREAT artistic photo book. Actually, the photos seemed average to me, much less than I had expected.
