Book Reviews of Cinema Under the Stars: America's Love Affair With the Drive-In Movie Theater
Book Review: Not worth it-- a real review
Summary: 1 Stars
While reading the previous reviews, I was reminded of an episode of Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares. Chef Ramsay went to an awful restaurant and found that someone had submitted a glowing review of that very restaurant to a dining guide. He quickly found out that the owners had reviewed their own restaurant. Maybe they did it in all caps, too.
I have this book, and it does miss the mark. Fortunately, I bought it cheap and didn't pay much for it, otherwise I'd have bad buyer's remorse. Stick with someone who is actually interested in drive-ins.
