Bicycle Messenger

Summary: A darn good book
Review: I have been a messenger for the past few years and I really enjoyed this book. There is no text save for the first couple pages, just a lot of great photos capturing the life of messengers around the world at work and at play and everything inbetween. I strongly recomend it for messengers and people who are interested in messengers.

Summary: Great Coffee Table Book
Review: This book is a great collection of photography created by a bike messenger highlighting the bike messenger culture, and showing an honest collection of the people who do this often thankless job. I commend him for some good pictures and for the time and effort he spent putting together this collection.

Review: This book was put together by the sorriest excuse for a messenger I have ever known. anyone who would actually PAY to see a bunch of pictures of drunken messengers has got to be a complete fool. I for one, know, I took pity on poor Kyle and purchased a copy when he released it to us messengers, and now serves its purpose as a beer coaster on my coffee table. Whoever is selling this book for $200 in LA seroiusly bumped his head. And as for Kyle, please dont support a messenger who made all his money in litigation from bogous accidents, rather than actually riding his bike.

Review: This book's compelling photography depicts the humanity behind the life and labor of the people who keep the upper class functioning. The cliche "one picture is worth a thousand words" does not do this book justice. Some of these photos are so touching it brings a lump to the throat. There are photos from around the world, each depicting something different yet all with something in common. The photographer, Kyle Shepard, has great talent. Every lawyer, banker, stock broker, real estate agent, and professional who utilizes the services of messengers ought to own this book, and refer to it from time to time so as to never forget the people behind the delivery of important documents. I think we will see Kyle Shepard become one of the great photographers of our time. He has a special talent for capturing humanity.
