Beautiful picturs, 45-year-old articles, and movie logo's are the highlight of this quentissential James Dean book. By far it is one of the best I have ever read, while it's not really a biography, it tells of Deans childhood, the relation and impact made by the characters Dean played and the legacy he left to us. If there was only one book on Jimmy I could have, this would be it. After all this time this book shows that James dean has not lost his appeal. And I'm pretty sure, Jimmy will be even bigger in 2005 when he receaves the honerary academy award, this book will occupy me until then.

This James Dean book is Awesome, it has sooo many great photos to look at I looked at this book for hours! james Dean is the best actor ever!!!!! this book gives all the information and pictures for his whole life's story, its great, you should buy it right away if you want to know and see James Dean!

great book!!! fun read, lots of terrific unique BIG pictures....several two page shots....can make a fan out of anybody.

This is perhaps the best Dean book out there for those of us that are interested in the photographs. Some hard to find and exclusive pics are in this one. Keep in mind it's not a biography if that is what you're looking for, but in terms of photos, this one can not be beat!

This book was good, had alot of pics. But at some parts of the book they had news paper clippings that were not compleat. I.E. One part is an interview with Passenger of the Fatel Crash. Half way into the interview, it cuts off. All and all a pretty good book if you like pics.
