Paul Gerard Pasols is the former director of communications for Louis Vuitton and a longtime consultant to the company. He was editorial director of Louis Vuitton City Guide 2004,New York, which is a finalist in the "best guide" category of the Gourmand World Cookbook Awards. The author of the updated sections is all at once journalist, traveller, and lover of all things beautiful. Pierre Leonforte has been editor in chief of City Guides Louis Vuitton since their creation in 1998. He collaborates on numerous French and Italian publications including Les Echos, Vogue and Maison Francaise. He is also the author of guidebooks and lifestyle books appearing in France, Germany, and Britain. He is the author of Abrams's Louis Vuitton: 100 Legendary Trunks.
If you are a Louis Vuitton collector as I am, or LV enthusiast, this tome will be a magnificent addition to your collection, or to your library. It is full of remarkable LV family history and full of the most beautiful photographs, some suitable for framing.
It contains manyo of the LV Posters for example, that I've tried to collect, and now have them in this book. It could make a wonderful coffee table book this holiday season.
One drawback: The center page is wonderful but terribly flawed by the center binding. It should have been a pull-out page instead.
I also saw it on eBay for more dollars and listed as "rare". Hardly!
Enjoy it.

This is a must have for all LV officianados. I have been collecting and using LV for over twenty-one years. This is an excellent literary and pictorial compilation of La Maison de Vuitton. Cudos! to the author, publisher, and of course La Maison de Vuitton for their continued commitment to perfection, elegance, and extrordinary products. Cudos, to the artisians for their pain-staking perfectionism in creating such works of art. This book is a tribute to over 150 years of leathercrafting, and now within the past 5 years pret-de-porte, couture, and precious metals. Vuitton continues to allow those of us loyal to the House to continue pushing the boundaries of style and fashion,and subtly encouraging admirer's of the House to indulge.
Life is a journey, so why not travel with the best. Well done LV! Tres magnifique!

This book has it all: a history lesson, an understanding and the very essence of Louis Vuitton style. The author clearly lives and understands LV. This book is a guide to understanding LV the family and the brand. This book is riveting and mind opening. LV is not just an expense bag or luggage. It is an adventure and is for the adventurous. I love this book.

As a collector of Louis Vuitton since 1989, I appreciate and enjoy this "history book", very much. Do not buy it if you are wanting alot of photos and fluff of the current lines. This book is truly for those that enjoy a love affair with the company and products from a historical and quality standpoint.

This book is filled with the history of the company from the person, Louis Vuitton's childhood, up through the generations that came after him. There are pictures of LV pieces scattered throughout the book. Not enough for those of us who love to look at LV bags and luggage. Overall a great addition to a collectors collection. The book retails in the boutique for $135.
