Editorial Review:
After years of intense scrutiny under the media's microscope, pop icon Britney Spears takes a step back to reflect. The result is a collectible book and DVD set, a personal gift from Britney to her millions of fans to mark her 21st birthday. Much more than a kid's keepsake, the set is a beautifully designed commemorative piece and an ideal gift for the holidays. The Book Four of the world's leading photographers [Jim Luning, Howard Rosenberg, Marc Serota, Jeff Sciortino] capture Britney in full colour and intimate black and white. Original photography of Britney onstage and backstage will be contrasted with images of her in her limited personal time, a view rarely seen and shared. Bestselling author Sheryl Berk compiles stories from Britney and the people who are closest to her. The DVD An unprecedented all-access glimpse of Britney, captured by legendary documentarian Albert Maysles [Gimme Shelter], shot during the final leg of her 2002 world tour and culminating in her dramatic experiences performing in Mexico City.
Stages Reviews:
A Rare Insight 
2009-01-25 - This is an extraordinary behind-the-scenes look at the life of an American mega pop star. Go with Britney in both photos and video as she tackles the trials and tribulations of her everyday life at home and on the road. Brilliant footage of her 2002 tour of Mexico and all that must be endured in preparation for a major concert event, including conversations between Britney and her dancers, make-up artist, management as an approaching thunderstorm threatens the event. Rare insight that is a must for any fan of Britney Spears. Highly Recommended.
A good collectors item 
2008-12-25 - Stages is a compulation of pictures that were taken of Britney in the height of her career. The over sized magazine pages and pictures are a great addition for collectors who desire Britney Spears memorabilia. Included in the illustration is a DVD pertaining to her time in Mexico, where she had to cut her concerts, due to poor weather. If most remember Mexico was upset with Britney for cutting her concerts. After seeing this, it's plain to see why she cut the concerts early. Over all a great collectors item. 4****
Britney's coffee table book
2007-04-14 - This giant coffee table book retailed for 30.00 US dollars, so the Amazon used/new price is very good. The pictures are pretty good, but not phenomenal. Britney is so photogenic that anyone could have done just as well, if not better. Also contained in the book is little messages (to Britney) from Britney's friends and family. These are kind of interesting, because they give you an idea of "who Britney is", as told by her closest friends/family members.
If you buy the book, make sure you get the bonus DVD. I didn't find it as amazing as some of the other reviewers. I didn't like how they cut out just as things got interesting (such as when Britney is meeting with the tarrot card reader). However, there was some interesting moments, such as Britney's press conference with the Mexican media. I was amazed at how rude they were to her. They asked question's like "how much did you pay for your mansion", "can you get up and show us what your wearing; can we see you from behind" ?
Great Visual Book
2005-07-31 - This book is awesome, its full of amazing pictures that capture the real britney. Even if your not a britney fan you will still admire all of the awesome pictures. This is a must have for any die hard britney fan like myself.
AWESOME
2005-06-08 - The DVD & poster are great bonus with book. Fully illustrated. I must have for all fans or collecters.
