Ms. Coffey’s book provides the reader a small glimpse into her life and I must say that I absolutely loved it and desired to hear more about her life. All I can hope is that she will write another book revealing more about personal life, her views, thoughts, and inspirational stories.

Auguste Racinet, The Costume History

This year for my birthday I'm getting myself a few beautiful books to add to my collection of art books. I went to one of my favorite websites Taschen Books to find something for myself.
