Pittsburgh Post-Gazette (PA) & Website, Sept. 27, 2007 "Lavish ... Countless close-ups of emblems, wheels, engine detail and other items make this book invaluable for the person who is restoring a Camaro. The artwork in 'Camaro' is stunning. Huge, glorious two-page color photos abound, and you're sure to see every conceivable angle of your favorite Camaro covered ... A terrific investment for the Camaro aficionado.", Car Collector Magazine , December 2007 "Of all the Camaro books written, and there are many, this one stands out as an insightful, well written history framed by some of the finest photographs ever taken of Camaros. When you combine the literary talents of a seasoned author like Darwin with the eye of one of America's top automotive photographers, David Newhardt (and an author of note in his own right), you have the recipe for something exceptional. The reaction by GM to the Mustang plays out so well in this book, that even if you know the story by rote, you will enjoy reading it again as well as revel in Newhardt's sumptuous imagery large color spreads, detailed close-ups, and driving shots that'll make you long for the open road. That's what a good book can do. Buy this one for the photography, keep it for the story.", Pittsburgh Post-Gazette (PA) & Website, Sept. 27, 2007 “Lavish & Countless close-ups of emblems, wheels, engine detail and other items make this book invaluable for the person who is restoring a Camaro.
