Book Reviews of The Power of Glamour: The Women Who Defined the Magic of Stardom

Book Review: A beautiful escape to the world of glamour
Summary: 5 Stars

This is not only a lovely "coffee table book" but a great history of the world of fashion. The movie actresses profiled are truly what defines glamour and intrigue. The biographies are well written and add much insight into these beauties of yesteryear. A true delight for film buffs who are captivated by actresses who dressed for success. A book to be read over and over. The many breathtaking photos alone are well worth the price. Beautiful and mesmerizing, what today's actresses can only dream of.
