Default Aronow books

I just got a used copy of Speed Kills from my girlfriend. What are the names of the other books about Don Aronow ? (I think there were 2 or 3 more about him, is that right?)

Blue Thunder by Thomas Burdick

and King of Thunderboat Row by Michael Aronow.

Both are out of print but can be found on ebay or Amazon.com

No problem!

Also, a must have is Searace by John Crouse. It's the bible of offshore history.

I have looked for both the books and Blue Thunder is easier to locate and less expensive from $5-50, while on the other hand The King of Thunder Boat Row is harder to locate and cost around $300-350 and found one yesterday in the UK for $850. Please let me know if you find The King of Thunder Boat Row for a better price if you don't take it. Good Luck with your x-mas list.

The prices on the King of Thunderboat Row are crazy. I bought the book new several years ago for about $40. A couple months ago I see that they are going for $200 plus on e-bay. So I throw my copy on there and the bid ends at $400. I figured I would get a dead beat bid, but I got paid very quickly. The book is an interesting read, but not worth buying at over $100.

Another interesting coffee table book is Muscle Boats. Again out of print and available on e-bay rather cheap at times.

Does this mean they are coming out with the same book again or a new version?
