Book Reviews of Ed "Big Daddy" Roth: His Life, Times, Cars, and Art

Book Review: Go ED. A man ahead but in tune with his time.
Summary: 5 Stars

Most people see Ed as an icon, which he was/is, few knew the man. I was very fortunate to have met him when in HS, and almost 40 yrs later 800mi away in another state. He was a talented man, a gifted artist, a somewhat insecure businesman, but a man with a soul. Find what you want to find, Ed Roth was a complex individual; should be more of them.
