Trucks: Giants of the Highway

(3) PS The pictures in this book show trucks as art, while the text provides simple descriptions of different kinds of trucks and the lives of truck drivers. Die-hard trucksters craving close-ups and realistic details may be disappointed by the manipulated photographs. Though some of the images are rather unsettling (harshly colored skin and hair on the people), others are truly beautiful (dramatically lit landscapes surrounding a single truck).
