Don Nunley with Marshall Terrill, "Steve McQueen: Le Mans in the Rearview Mirror" (Dalton Watson, 2017)

Summary

Steven McQueen was known as a great action star, but he also sometimes had a reputation for being troublesome on the set. Don Nunley worked with him as a prop man on Le Mans, a pet project of McQueen's set around the 24-hour endurance auto race in France. This book is an homage to the film, which despite being a box-office disappointment, is widely regarded as one of the most beloved auto racing films of all time. Steve McQueen: Le Mans in the Rearview Mirror (Dalton Watson Fine Books, 2017) also contains many details and photographs from Nunley's long career in Hollywood.
