The cat's out of the bag. 'The body part' series wraps up with the origin of us all. First, "The Big Book of Breasts", then "The Big Penis Book", "The Big Book of Legs", and the weighty "Big Butt Book". What could follow but an in-depth exploration of the female pudendum, that coveted orifice man spends nine months trying to escape, and a lifetime attempting to reenter? "The Big Book of Pussy", not to be confused with a book of big pussy, closes out this popular series with an offering sure to be as controversial as it is popular. As in previous volumes, editor Dian Hanson delves into the historical significance of this humble os, to show how the yoni has been coveted, feared, reviled, and worshipped by civilizations worldwide, from New Guinea to old Ireland. The text is supported by playful photographs of women exposing their vulvas, from 1900 to the present day. Because depiction of this body part has long been wrapped in unwarranted shame, "The Big Book of Pussy" reframes the subject, featuring models who expose their most private part enthusiastically, happily, with smiles spread wide as...well, you get the picture. And with 400+ photos the point is made emphatically, in images both naturally furry and stylishly groomed. Included are interviews with the auteur known as Pussyman, the ex-cop who turned masturbation into millions with a toy called the Fleshlight, Vanessa del Rio, squirter Flower Tucci, vaginal performance artist Mouse, and the singular Buck Angel. Contemporary photographers Terry Richardson, Richard Kern, Ralph Gibson, Jan Saudek, Guido Argentini, Ed Fox and others share their favorite pussy photos, so that by page 372 even the shiest reader will be calling, "Here, kitty, kitty!"

Format:Hardcover
The perfect roundup to the Big Book series by Dian Hanson, this one was a pretty obvious addition to the ongoing saga of yesteryear porn. As the title indicates, this is a smorgasbord of wide open pussy from the early 1910's up to nowadays. We get the whole deal from furry ones to clean shaven, as the chapters go from one era to another. It's not much different from the previous other books in it's content, as the majority of the pictures come from unknown sources, mostly amateur or under the counter magazines, and some of the girls herein should have better kept their clothes on, as they look uglier naked.
I kept imagining that this book would generally cover the Hustler, Cheri and various other spread-eagle magazines of the 70's, but there are no photos from those magazines, so we get more of a girl next door series of pictures, and I'm not talking Playboy here. These are real girls, like the ones we run into every day, that is, if we still lived in the sixties, but it's amazing how beaver shots go all the way back to the beginning of photography.
I would have preferred if the ladies weren't so plain looking (some are really ugly), but we get some beaver shots of Betty Page (that seem to have been taken by extremely amateur photographers). We also get some comments by "pussy" experts, though why was Flower Tucci chosen over Cytherea as the best squirting girl, I'll leave up to you.
The book ends with a shocker, that nearly had me drop it in utter disgust, until I read the feature and understood what it was all about, and had a laugh instead. But I don't know if this book was the ideal place to put such pictures. I guess the editor is having the biggest laugh on all the male readers.
By the way, those who believe this is nothing but cheap porn, might be right... but it's never been so gloriously packaged.
If you liked the previous books, and who didn't, this one is for you!

Dian Hanson has delivered the goodies for us lovers of female beauty and their blossoming lotuses here.
Best of all, she has had the wherewithal to include a section on Britain's loveliest and most intelligent stripper & erotic performance artist, Mouse [...], I look forward to more art photographers and exotic theatre troupes employing her formidable talents, as I've seen her strip on several occasions and she certainly brings the house down - she's also got a great personality and a thoughtful mind - all that in one package !
This book will make a great present for the man or woman in your life who adores the loveliness of womenhood - where to next Dian ?!

The authoress of this book is Diane Hanson, a .highly intelligent woman in her fifties. This book is one of my favourites, it is a sort of history of nude female photography since from about 1900 onwards. The pussies are beautiful hairy vaginas,one on every page,accompanied by a smiling female face and breasts as well. Looking at this puts a smile on my face too.It is a quality large hard back book and worth every penny. Read this book and smile-----its priceless.
