Everybody likes tabletop books – architecture, landscapes, gardens and photography – however in the quest for more interesting and challenging titles the end result is the Big Penis Book – the ultimate tabletop discussion starter, and it will certainly stimulate discussion! If you leave it on your coffee table just watch the amazing reactions from your guests- from mirth to shock - some peak, some leaf through the pages with pleasure and others will try and pretend they don’t see it at all!

This is a book which is big in every way, big in terms of quality, big in terms of the quantity of images and content and big in terms of the subject matter. When we say big, we mean BIG, the minimum size seems to be from 7 or 8 inches at the minimum to some 12 inches in length. Since those possessing more than 8 inches make up less than 2% of the world's population, this guide to rare tools will certainly intrigue, fascinate and in many, trigger fits of envy.

The book itself is a superior hardback, oversized and produced to exacting standards. It is 12 inches by 12 inches and runs 384 pages and weighs seven pounds! It has extremely high quality photography and includes over 400 amazing photographs. It is a truly beautiful and erotic volume.

While it may seem strange to talk about the text content, a bit like straight men telling their wives they buy Playboy for the articles, this book does includes a lot of interesting commentary as well. There are essays on the nature of the penis in photography, comprehensive discussions of major photographers, studios and profiles of such noteworthy models as the amazing John Holmes. While this book tries to cover the whole spectrum of large phallic photography it is especially focused on studios such as Athletic Model Guild, Old Reliable, Colt, Falcon, Sierra Domino, Third World, and Champion Studios which brought the large member into the public arena during the Seventies in both print and film. There is also examination of the art of “digitally” altering dicks to look bigger than they are and the never ending search for the longest penis and the legends that have evolved along the way.

While this book will immediately have a following within the gay community and most of the studios featured were gay film and photography studios, many women will also enjoy this incredibly liberated look at large appendages.

The Big Penis Book is the ultimate guide to the large tool and certainly deserves a pride of place in any eroticists library.
