Taking the Train

Rating:
Summary: An important contribution
Review: For anyone who is seriously interested in all aspects of the Graffiti Culture, Joe Austin pulls it all together in this scholarly, but easily readable, excellently researched new book.
The author has spent the necessary time to know many of the important writers, to review the major material written in the last thirty years and to organize it in a way that helps the reader develop a more comprehensive understanding of this unique art form. "Taking the Train" joins a very select list of books that make up the "Graffiti Book Hall of Fame"
