Few American phenomena are more evocative of time; place; and culture than the drive-in theater. From its origins in the Great Depression; through its peak in the 1950s and 1960s and ultimately its slow demise in the 1980s; the drive-in holds a unique place in the countryrsquo;s collective past. Michiganrsquo;s drive-ins were a reflection of this time and place; ranging from tiny rural 200-car ldquo;ozonersrdquo; to sprawling 2;500-car behemoths that were masterpieces of showmanship; boasting not only movies and food; but playgrounds; pony rides; merry-go-rounds; and even roving window washers.

3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Uneven QualityBy sitdownbikeThis book was worth the price. I actually read it and found the text informative regarding the Red Sonja character. About a third of the illustrations in the book are what I would call good to excellent. More than half just are not very good. The comics industry does this all the time; they create a following for a book by assigning a rock star illustrator for 6 months or so and then hope that the readers will continue to buy the title because of the storyline after they put in a lesser art team. It is particularily offensive when a book like this comes out with a dozen or 2 good to excellent illustrations and the rest is filler.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Five StarsBy R. John MorrisseyLots of enjoyable color art. I appreciate the ideals behind this work.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. This is a great collection of art from Red SonjaBy Jacob purvisThis is a great collection of art from Red Sonja. There is very little about the history of the character; but I actually liked the fact that the vast majority of the pages were full of art. This is an art book; not a history or character analysis. Just a beautiful book full of art.
