My "Honest Appraisal" (7)

Things I like about "my" book -- the one that I set up, launched, and was robbed of the opportunity to complete:

• The emphasis on pure photographic impact.
• The size and heft of the book itself.
• The more than several brilliant pairings and juxtaposing of images.
• Individual photographs which I had never seen, and which were stunning.
• Tyrone Power as Jesse James in close-up with kerchief over nose and mouth.
• The portrait of the back of Alice Faye's head with hair swept up.
• Pages 200-215, which is most of "Chapter 2".
• Anthony Ugrin's photo of June Lang in air.
• The dedication to Patrick Miller (Patman).

What I didn't like about this book, and what I wish I could have changed:

Do you have enough time and interest to even read this? Do I have enough time and interest to record it?
