I have had the pleasure of reading this unique coffee table book. The girls are fantastic, and the photography is sublime. Christopher Logan has produced a very interesting book. The attention to detail, the models, the photographers, and Christopher have put into this work of art is simply fabulous (with a capital F!!!)




This book deserves to be read! (ok, oogled at!)... a great conversation starter - just leave it out, it will generate conversation!! This is a great piece of art! From cover to cover, it flourishes with beauty. So much more than a collection of pictures of drag queens -- one can see the individuality of each queen, all dressed up in the elegance of drag. The photographers have managed to capture these beauties in all their extravagance  Each pose has the reader enveloped in their charm and charisma. This is truly an unique book, well deserving of any discerning person's coffee table!
