Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Negrophilia: Avant-Garde Paris and Black Culture in the 1920s (Interplay) (Paperback)
This book was assigned for a history class at UC Berkeley and have had a hard time keeping it in my flat because everyone borrows it. It has the most beautiful photos (Paul Colin, Archibald Motley, Gauguin, Picasso... there is a picture for every page), nice heavy paper with sheen, and great typeset. Don't let the title fool you, the book is not inflammatory, it is simply a great art book as well as an academically respected history book that is also fun for lay readers. I ended up purchasing a second copy because after the first chapter I regretted highlighting/underlining such a beautiful book. I wanted a nice pristine copy and and now I have extra copy to loan out. Le jazz hot fans, Josephine Baker aficionados, Art lovers of any race will adore this book.
