This is a must for any fan of offshore racing. Don Aronow was a genius, and his son (as you would expect) gives a passionate account of some of the aspects of Don Aronow that most of us have no knowledge about. The large text covers up that this publication is a little thin on the ground when it comes to depth of content - but for me it's all about the pictures anyway - wonderful stuff. They are of a bygone era - if I had a magic wand I would send myself back to the early 70's, so that I could experience again the most beautiful boats in the world. Failing that, this book is a step in the right direction in achieving my dream.....

Michael Aronow has done a fantastic job with this book. It's a class act all the way and it features the most incredible speedboat pictures I've ever seen. The action shots, in particular, are thrilling. Terrific!

I enjoyed the wonderful pictures that practically fill this thin book. They truly are unique and rare photographs for the most part. However, the story as far as a biography goes is sorely lacking in any great depth. And as you might expect of one's son, told from a safe vantage point, leaving much of the true gritty details out. The text encompasses as much a play by play of Don's racing career more so than anything else. Those who want to know the true story of Don Aronow beyond his race victory's should look elsewhere, but do by this book for the pictures, they are excellent.

This is the best book ever written about speedboats. Unbelievable stories combined with awesome photographs. This is as close as you can get to the action.
Don Aronow was the Babe Ruth of boat racing. It's refreshing to see him finally get the recognition he deserves.
Michael Aronow did a great job.

"Don Aronow: King of Thunderboat Row" is as good as it gets for even the casual powerboat fan. It contains an amazing blend of breathtaking photographs, fascinating anecdotes and behind-the-scenes stories of Aronow's personal and professional life. George Bush's contribution to the book is a wonderful and moving addition. Michael Aronow has done an extraordinary job. He has delivered a winner, proudly carrying on the Aronow tradition.
