Bette's Encore

In some ways, Garber has succeeded in taking her earlier book to the next level with this latest effort. 500 color photos and 400 pages including text provide a spectacular banquet of some of America's finest working custom show trucks. Yes, there are a few familiar trucks that can be found in her previous book, however each photo offers a fresh look. Major brands such as Peterbilt, Freightliner International and Kenworth each get a huge chapter of their own, and it is this perhaps which will make this book so appealing to fans of these makes. Other brands including Mack, Marmon, Western Star and Stirling feature some great examples and offer plenty of interest. The most puzzling chapter for me is the substantial Volvo expose. Almost all of the Volvos pictured are rather ordinary trucks, the type you would expect to see in brochures. This is in stark contrast to the titkle of the book and all of the other chapters. Great for Volvo fans I suppose..though I feel that Mack fans probably deserved a better deal. The book's footprint is an unusual and not overly large size, yet thankfully, very few truck photos find themselves cut in half between pages. 99 out 100 for this! Comparing this title to her earlier work, there is a lack of interior cab shots. Despite this, it would be dificult to find another current or recent pictorial show truck book that comes close to this one . Excellent value!!
