(More customer reviews)I would have loved way more insight into Horiyoshi III's life and techniques. More anecdotes and stories from Jill's visits and studies. The text feels short and light, but interesting nonetheless. The photos are not great. Many are blurry and some even look like they were enlarged from lo-res jpegs. Definitely some image resolution issues. It's a nice addition to the library but I'm left feeling hungry.
