During my career, I've worked on several projects but we had a lot of fun developing multimedia books for The Bakersfield Californian in 2012. They were designed to showcase the multimedia talents of our staff, including the 2012 March Meet -- a historic drag race held in Bakersfield each March.
Here's the link to the March Meet page, where the book is available for $4.99
