More than thirty years later, Pre's gusty racing style and unbelievable talent remains an inspiration to millions of runners around the world. StevePre: The Unfinished Story of Running Icon Steve Prefontaine is a unique and creative account of Steve Prefontaine's life told through the viewpoint of his former coach, Bill Bowerman. Edgy, emotional writing combined with a layout influenced by experimental 1970s graphic design creates a beautiful and moving experience for runners of all ages. The coffee table art book is brief, fact-filled, fast-paced and visually stunning. It's a true collectible for fans of Steve Prefontaine. |
