Fantastic Book of Bygone Area.
This is easily the best book of Slim Aarons amazing photography. Contains several photos that never were published. Book is broken up into regional sections (NYC, LA, Italy, Palm Beach, Bahamas, etc) with legendary celebrities and socialites. Aarons was a master at getting the glamorous to look beautiful and classy (unlike the fake reality plastic stars of today) at amazing locales. I especially love his photos from the 1950s both in Hollywood and in the USA New England.

What a gift Slim Aaron is.
A calm and delightful collection of innocent and charming work. No questionable shock-and-awe spreads. The responsible, feel-good sweetness of a more structured yesteryear. Would make a kind coffee table book.

Perfect Hostess Gift!
This book, along with Aarons others are must-haves for those searching for the perfect hostess gift for the perfect hostess! They offer a glimpse into a bygone era of priviledge and elegance. I order them in multiples. The quality is top notch, and the books are unavailable in stores. They are unique, and always appreciated.

Beautiful photos but some pages were grainy
Loved the book and the photos. The quality of some of the pages was grainier than I would have expected, however which is why I gave it 4 stars.
