Reviews

[Amy · Rating 2 out of 5]

Used this for the thesis, but it's not nearly as informative or good as The Wire book. It's a little more "coffee table" than "book shelf," if that makes sense. Wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

Lots of great photos from the first two series, many interviews with the actors, not much fresh material. Pleasant enough.
