[Todd Williams]

Sort of a coffee table book. A concise story of the peak years of the PRs by their most important biographer. A beautiful book that blends art, poetry, and biography. I even learned a few new things from it.

This book really just rehashes the same quotes available in larger volumes...I was hoping for a more in-depth look at the actual writings of the P.R.B. Also, especially toward the end, the author seems to allow her bias to color her opinion of the latter days of the P.R.B. An ok book, with a few new interesting tidbits, but mostly disappointing to anyone seeking more.
