Summary: A magnificent treasure.
Review: What a lovely book, both the stories and photographs. Everyone who sees it starts to talk about a)which places they've seen; b)which places they want to see; c)going to New Orleans. Buy this book and then buy several for your friends.

Rating:
Summary: A unique documantation of the history of New Orleans.
Review: What better a way to document the colorful history of New Orleans than to do it from the tables of its legendary saloons. Institutions that have played and still play an important role in the story book setting that is New Orleans. I keep this book on my living room coffee table and have gotten constant compliments on it.
