This review is from: Spenser's Boston (Hardcover)

I love Spenser and have read every Spenser book several times (at least). This book is a great art photo book of Boston, I enjoy the pictures. This book is NOT what I was hoping for: it is not pictures of places in the Spenser books, or if it is they're certainly not labeled as such. It's just photos of Boston divided up by season. Like I said they're nice photos, but if you're hoping for fuel for your imagination when you read your Spenser books, this won't help.

5.0 out of 5 stars It was great, December 30, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Spenser's Boston (Hardcover)

It was an excellent display of photographs, but the price was far from reasonable (it cost $120 used). I recommend it for any die-hard Spenser fans, but otherwise, don't bother.
