The photos are just sensational, and the text is both informative and interesting, something you don't always find with these kinds of books. I got it while working on a story and it's been indispensable. If you love great old interiors you will adore this book!. Great Book for a Great exhibition Very well documented, interesting articles coevring a fascinating era. A very fine book with high quality prints and documents that may be difficult to find elsewhere. Perfect gift for those who love New York, Paris and the art-deco era.
