This is a beautiful, albeit small, collection of photographs of Sharon Tate. The book is only 15 pages, and contains only 6 illustrations, but it is well worth the money for the beautiful images. The photographs were taken in 1964 when Sharon was 21. For the most part, they feature Sharon amidst elements of nature. My favorite photograph is one of Sharon shielding her face from the sun (black and white, folds out). Also included is a short essay on the brilliance of photographer Walter Chappell and his images of Sharon. My only wish is that a larger collection of Sharon Tate images would be released. Sharon Tate lived 26 years before the one night that took her life and it is time that more books like this which celebrate the beauty of her life rather than the horror of her death be released!

A MUST IF YOU ARE A BIG SHARON TATE FAN,THERE ARE ONLY 6 PICTURES,THAT IS WHY I DID NOT GIVE IT 5/5 STARS INSTEAD I GAVE 4/5 STARS,BECAUSE I WANTED TO SEE MORE BEAUTIFUL PICTURES OF MRS TATE.HER LIFE WAS TAKED TO SOON AND THESE BREATHTAKING PICTURES BY WALTER CHAPPEL MADE YOU WANT TO SEE MORE OF SHARON TATE.THE BOOK IS GROUND BREAKING AS FAR AS SEEING A YOUNG SHARON TATE IN 1964 SO TRANQUIL AND HAPPY AND IF YOU LOVE PHOTOGRAPHLY AND MRS TATE BY ALL MEANS BUY IT.YOU WON'T BE DISSAPOINTED.
