Readers will want a sturdy table to support this eight-and-a-half- pound book (it's oversize: 9.5x12.5") prepared by Pasols, whose involvement with the company's creative and strategic management began in 1986. He plumbed the depths of the company's archives to write the company's 150-year history, beginning with a biography of Louis Vuitton (1821-1892), who founded the company and invented the modern travel trunk, and then tracing the interplay of business, family, and passion for design and luxury through the decades and across endeavors in fashion, architecture, art, and automobile design. As befits the subject matter, the presentation is lavish, including some 700 color illustrationsarchival art, historical images, product designs and sketches, and advertisements.
