Reviews for Libertine: The Creative Beauty, Humor, and Inspiration Behind the Cult Label
"Johnson Hartig's book Libertine deviates sharply from the glossy norm. For one thing, it's arranged not chronologically but via a mishmash of alphabetized references. Only here will you find André Breton and Andy Warhol sitting cheek by jowl with Andy Williams, or the late Pat Buckley sharing real estate with the hard-core band Wasted Youth." -NEW YORK MAGAZINE ONLINE
