Summary: art and a tiny lesson in a misunderstood youth subculture
Comment: First of all this book is not written as some far in depth account of skinheads, it is a photo journal. Knight is a talented photograher and this book should be put into spectrum as an art book, who's subject is an almost lost subculture. Do not buy this book if you want a grand tale of the non-racist skinhead movement and evolution. Also when looking at the photos be prepared to keep an open mind, past preconceieved notions. If you like the book check out Gavin Watsons Skins, a very similiar book, less writting but more photographic talent. Also if you want more knowledge on the truth behind skinheads, try reading Spirit of 69, a Skinhead bible.
In rebuttle to another reviewer, all skinheads are NOT nazis now and there is a growing rebirth of the non-racist subculture.

Summary: Sexy Photo Book for that NEW Brit Skin Scene
Comment: This book is fine if you like to look at pics of the boots and braces scene. Lots of nice photos. But really, who are we kiddin' 'ere? Skinheads are Nazis (OK, not in 1969, but they are now.) And, if they are not Nazis, they're just bald people. That will come soon enough, on its own, with age/ heredity, etc. I'd skip this one and go for the George Marshall stuff. He's more up to speed on the scene, even though he's an old-timer. Meanwhile...read Nietzsche. Improve your WHITE mind. 88!

Rating: 4
Summary: decent...nothing earth-shattering
Comment: This book is fairly well written, including not only the traditional aspect of the culture, but also touching on the more well-known white power branch. However, all in all, it's mostly stories from skinheads in "their day" and a fashion guide. Although for someone who knew nothing of the skinhead culture (or for those who thought it only a neo-Nazi based culture), this is exceptional.
