Summary: Detailed and to the point, great pictures
Comment: This book may not rival other books by the same author, but it does indeed provide a nice, compact story of how the Gibson Les Paul came to be, how the deal for it was set and its evolution. Deep research, presented in a very down to earth language, help the Les Paul enthusiast learn about the instrument and its different incarnations. Although the book could've used more pictures (or at least, different, detailed shots of the ones included) all the pics are in great color, and most of the models are shown here. In all, a great book about one of the finest musical instruments of the century.
