With an introduction by artist and Bowie s life-long friend, George Underwood. When David Bowie passed away on 10 January 2016, the world lost a musical hero. But his legacy lives on. While his sound and style evolved throughout his career from Ziggy to the Thin White Duke two facts never changed: he was an innovator; and photographers adored him. This book pays homage to this ultimate icon. Reviews "It is gorgeous and delicious. It is truly a feast for the eyes and all the senses. The printer created art from our art. Beautiful!" - Janet Macoska "I'm proud to be part of this amazing collection of images on the iconic David Bowie, which are so beautifully reproduced in a book that honors his artistry." - Lynn Goldsmith "The book is amazing - a lot of images I've never seen." - John Scarisbrick "A must-have for all Bowie fans." - Departures International "You couldn't take a bad picture of him," [photographer Mick] Rock tells The Daily Beast. "I defy you to look through the book and find a picture you could call 'bad.' There aren't any. He just had an awareness. It was evident early on - he understood the power of the picture." - The Daily Beast "The most beautiful photographs of the star in a single and beautiful book... a rich and splendid compilation..." - Beware Magazine "Impressive... a splendid collection." - Velvet Goldmine "Arguably the first musical artist to constantly reinvent himself through revising his image, Bowie proved to be as much a visual icon of the 70s, 80s and 90s as he was a musical innovator. Now, all that glam has been captured in a spectacular book." - Chris Jenkins, Arts & Collections magazine
