Well, it's summer and I have a lot of free time. So, I'm just wondering what are a few good books I could pick up on sports photography?

Thanks!

Yep, read it, and it IS good. Title is "Digital Sports Photography" and it's current and specific to how to shoot most all major US team sports plus tennis.

The author tells his story how he went from being an Engineer and shooting sports part-time to build up his portfolio to how he gets a few breaks and before he knew it, he was doing this for a living. Not only are the chapter written by him interesting, but there is a chapter on what Photo Editors look for written by a Photo Editor.
