A Steal of a Deal,
By B. Evans (Chicagoland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Moorish Architecture in Andalusia (Taschen 25th Anniversary Series) (Hardcover)
I am not doing this review to acquaint readers with what this book covers, for the above editorial review does that well. Rather, I want to make sure that readers know that in spite of selling for so little, this book offers all one would expect from a book published by Taschen: superb colored photography, line drawings, maps, a glossary of terms and, of course, good writing/explanations. Marvel at your good fortune at finding such a bargain, and be assured that the coverage of Cordoba's Great Mosque and the Alhambra is superb.
Just how much of a bargain? As I discovered when I purchased a copy of this edition for a gift, the only difference between it and the pre-anniversary edition is the shortened title and the picture on the cover, yet the latter, Moorish Architecture, which I paid $25 for in paperback a few years ago, now starts at $39.89. (6/12/09 update: Some used copies of the original publication are now available for much less. 2/13/10 Post-script: Wow! When I reviewed this book as "a steal of a deal," it was not yet out of print and copies were available for under $20.

A surprisingly complete and well-organized book at this price, with great photos. Truly a "best buy."
