Summary: Lovely photographs
Review: This book contains lovely photographs, excellent essays and wonderful captions. You get to see parts of America and the American lifestyle that unless you travel the country extensively, you might miss. Most of us spend too much time flying over the country or stopping only in airports and big cities. This book gives you an opportunity to get off the beaten track and see other aspects of the America Life. Love the idea of making a custom cover and am going to do that as part of my Christmas presents this year.

Summary: Simply awesome!!!!!
Review: To match the success of the famed "Day in the Life of America" is a feat in and of itself, but America 24/7 exceeds even that excellent work coupling photography and storytelling. This book goes one step further. By integrating technology and the vision of many more photographers, contributors and writers, the content is both timely and timeless, and represents a broad range of what 'America' is--an often difficult to define notion of a people joined under the common banner of perseverance, freedom, individuality and passion for ideals that remain unique in this world. This book is not just a book, it is history captured through the eyes and souls of many.

Summary: MORE MASS-MARKETED UNDER-QUALITY TRIPE
Review: With terrible print quality for sub-par photos and a gimmick you can smell over a Starbucks double-latte, America 24/7 is a despicable attempt by big business to shove poor quality down our gullets. The editors are obviously not done mining their once-decent idea, because you guessed it, Wyoming 24/7 (and one for every other state) will be hitting stores around the same time 24/7 Happy Meals do. As though it weren't enough that they're shilling terrible quality photos, they've got about 6 pages in the back of the book with promotional information for each of their company sponsors. And as insulting as it is, they've basically got advertisements for a digital camera company in a photo book. I guess we're at that time in society when our art rents out ad-space. I sure hope this isn't what America has become. I hope we're not so stupid as to be taken in by this venture. And shame on you reviewers who're giving this mediocre scheme of a book a good review just because they let one of your photos into their marketing campaign. This is a sleazy exploitation of the American ideal, and it is promotionalism of the worst kind.

Summary: The book was great- the cover sucked.
Review: Yes, the book itself is wonderful- the idea is genius, the final result was wonderful.
But if you're hoping to see your smiling face on the cover within their predicted timeline, you're going to be majorly disappointed.
It took the company SEVEN WEEKS to deliver the book cover- and I ordered before they were on Oprah, before they got popular, and back when they were promising a delivery within two weeks.
By the way- Christmas is over, and that makes it pretty tough to give it as a Christmas gift.
I would advise you to be prepared for a very, very long wait if you order the "custom cover".
Save yourself time and money- find something better to buy.
