Book Poolside with Slim Aarons

Like its predecessors "Once Upon a Time" and "A Place in the Sun," "Poolside with Slim Aarons" offers images of jet-setters and the wealthy, of beautiful, glittering people living glamorous lives. The main character is pools and everything that goes with them - gorgeous, sun-tanned bodies, well-oiled skin, women in bikinis, yachts, summer cocktails, lavish buffets, spectacular locations and, above all, fun. "Poolside with Slim Aarons" is not so much a who's who of society, aristocracy and celebrities - although C. Z. Guest, Lily Pulitzer, Cheryl Tiegs, Peter Beard and many who appeared in previous books are here - but it is about leisure and how the rich use it. This is a more intimate look into a very private life that Slim Aarons had unprecedented access to in the fifties, sixties, seventies and eighties. From the Caribbean to Italy to Mexico to Monaco, "Poolside with Slim Aarons" transports the reader to an exclusive club where taste, style, luxury and splendor reign supreme.
