I have read The Snow Blind Moon, cover to cover, three times now. I have loaned and given the book to many people who all agreed that it was superior. The characters are welldeveloped and real. The story of white settler and Indian has never been presented with more understanding and sympathy. Why the movies have not discovered it is hard to comprehend.

I'am french and bought this book in 1986 when i was student in London. I thought it will make a very good movie. Seven years later "Dance with the wolves" was released and was a major success worldwide. For all the ones who liked "Dance With the Wolves" buy this book, it is definitively better, well written and as said the Observer: Anyone with a soft spot for the Old West...is bound to relish THE SNOWBLIND MOON

Butch Cassidy, thought to be dead by friend and foe alike, encounters Charlie Siringo, an ex-pinkerton who chased Cassidy's gang 20-years ago, meet in Hollywood and are soon bound for the deserts of Mexico with a beautiful Victoria Hartford and ther film crew. They come face-to-face with Pancho Villa's revolution in one of the greatest adventures of thier life.

An elaborate melding of careful research and lively invention bring Butch back alive.

Most Joplin fans will want this book for the many marvelous,unpublished photos. The diary of live performances is very interesting, but the calander format is annoying. Another book that compliments "A Performance Diary" is "Janis Garden Party", a collection of photos taken at Madison Square Garden in Dec. 1969 by photographer Steve Banks. The book is published by Bugiganga Press, 1998.

This book has to lie on the shelf of all Janis fans, who are interested both in her music and personality - although the texts are not really informative, so you won`t learn much about the details of her life. But this book is not intended to be a biography~it`s more a TRIBUTE. And she deserved it. A beautiful collection of pictures and letters ~some in her own handwriting~ a cronological list of her performances and the summary of the main steps in her carreer. A VERY NICE piece of HIGH LEVEL!

This book contains any number of beautiful photographs, it has beautifully written reflections on Janis from friends and lovers. In short it has it all. A good read.
