Spectacular Book for F. Scott Fitzgerald Enthusiasts!! May 02, 2006
By Fitzgerald Fan
If you are a fan of F. Scott Fitzgerald, this book is an absolute must-have! While I own just about everything that is written by or about Fitzgerald, this is perhaps my favorite book to peruse. It is compiled just like a personal scrapbook and is replete with photos of the Fitzgeralds as well as articles (by and about Fitzgerald)written in the 20s and 30s. Much of this content you will not find elsewhere, at least not in such abundance. Bruccoli, America's leading Fitzgerald scholar (as well as Fitz's own daughter, Scotty) did a spectacular job of putting this together. The scrapbook format gives the book an intimate nature and the set up is extremely attractive. Best of all, at just around $20, it is an absolute steal for the price! If you love Fitzgerald, don't go without this collection! It would make a splendid addition to any high school classroom that teaches Fitzgerald or any personal library that celebrates true literary classics.

Stunning collection of Fitzgerald ephemera Nov 10, 2006
By Christopher D. Bevard
My girlfriend, a fellow Fitz enthusiast, bought me this for my birthday and it ranks among the best gifts I've ever received. This is an amazing and exhaustively comprehensive scrapbook of the lives of the Fitzgeralds. If you're a fan and come away from this without wanting to get your hands on every single thing those two touched...there's something very, very wrong with you. ;) Beautiful book.

So amazing! Jan 16, 2008
By amzical
I am a huge fan of both F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald so it was great to get this glimpse into their personal lives. Because their daughter was involved with this book, that gives it even more authenticity and it's like we're being given permission by Scottie herself to look at her family's scrapbooks. A very surreal experience!
 If you are a Fitzgerald, or Scott - Zelda aficionado, you will love this Nov 07, 2009
By B. Grandon
If like me you can't get enough of Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald, their tumultuous and tragic story, and a snapshot of what I consider one of the most fascinating times in history for culture and the arts, the early twentieth century up to World War II, this book is a must-have.
It's mostly pictures, clippings, Zelda's art, wires and correspondence, and other personal memorabilia, but a wonderful companion after you read some of his work, or any of their biographies.
