The photography alone makes this book worth buying. It's a wonderful coffee-table book. But, I also found it to be surprisingly educational. The use of photography combined with compelling text, allows for an intimate look into a sub-culture not easily understood and one that is quickly disappearing. It is both timeless and thought-provoking.

I loved this book. Don't get me wrong. Pimps are not heroes and they aren't victims of society either but this picture book is gorgeous. The photography is awesome.
