Gorgeous
The layout and pictures in this book are beautiful and informational. The content is a little lacking, especially if you have read any of Liza Dalby's books or Memoirs of a Geisha, both of which are referenced constantly throughout. The captions are a little trite sometimes. The historical ones are interesting, but some of the modern ones make comments that are really obvious.
A great coffee table book for the pictures, but not insightful for anyone already familiar with Geisha culture.
