Format: Hardcover
The Good Life captures Palm Springs in the 21st Century: a throwback that is still current and where everyone wants to be (unless you are a total stump). This secret peek into how the residents on Palm Springs is a treat to look at every time I browse the pages. Nancy's book is a true love letter to Palm Springs, and I'm so happy that someone who 'gets it' has created a book that frankly reflects life here in Palm Springs.

Hard to fathom how anyone not legally blind would find this other than a sumptuous visual delight. If you're on my holiday list you'll be seeing this one. Bravo!
