I got this book a couple months before I did the Running of the Bulls in Pamplona in 2009. I got ran over, something this book talks about. Mainly, though, it reminisces on old people that ran while giving lots of pictures.

It's a good coffee table book, but if you're looking for more of a history of the Festival of San Fermin, this isn't it.

this was good, a good emotional and accurate and also welly subjective account of a tradition, a difficult and silly thing to try and capture, but i believe this author really does so well with a balance of personal information and objectivity.
