Review:
"Charles A. Riley focuses on the inousiance and elan, as well as the serious achievement, of some of the people whose high jinks and true genius defined the brilliance of the 1920's. In its breezy but informative text and feast of lively illustrations, the book sketches the overlapping lives of rich patrons and dedicated writers, composers, performers and painters who convened in Paris and on the Cote d'Azur in this epoch of flourishing creativity."
Nicholas Fox Weber, New York Times Book Review, 12/05/2004
