Summary: Great, Facinating Biography
Review: This is a very facinating biography of a very interesting and eccentric man. John S. Barrington was a "pioneer" in the field of physique and male-nude photography. He was also very big on being "showy." This book is well written, interesting, and covers his life well from birth 'til death. It also includes examples of his work and pictures of the artist at various times and ages. This is a must read for those who like to read about interesting lives.

Summary: Life of a pornographer
Review: This is an interesting look at a unique life and personality. Not quite worth the five star rating I have it when I was younger, but still a worthwhile read.
