The Jimmy Buffet Scrapbook Reviews:
Buffet's dream business 
2008-09-23 - Good references to Jimmy's literary and musical sources. Not a well-written book, sometimes reading like an "authorized bio" marketing piece, sometimes like a pseudo-hip period piece.
It overemphasizes Jimmy's earlier periods of drugs and alcohol. While I personally want to think that Jimmy lifestyle wasn't that bad, I also know that a businessman who could build the "dream" business he has built around his lifestyle had to be in control of his facilities and faculties to a very large extent even in the early days.
I would use this book primarily as a reference source for additional reading and research on Buffett.
Quite simply the best book ever written about Jimmy Buffett. 
2003-12-30 - This book is full of great pictures and in my opinion is the best book for Tropical music / Buffett researchers that you can obtain. Very interesting and insightful. I loved this book! ...the real Jimmy Buffett. A fun book!
Fun romp through Buffett history 
2002-11-02 - Who doesn't look at their high school yearbook and reminesce? If you've been to many Buffett concerts or attended any of his events, this is a fun look back. Being a Parrothead for most of my life, this is my coffee table book!! Would only be better if Buffett wrote it himself.

Informative Text & Great Illustrations and Photos
2000-04-03 - A must for all Parrothead and Key West lovers! Even for non-Buffet fans, good insights on other artists that influenced Jimmy including writers, great folk and country singers. Uses lots of unique media to set the mood--postcards, photos, album art, vintage paperback covers and illustrations. Lots of my friends wish the Publisher would have made a bigger printing or would re-release this book. This book captures the spirit of the Jimmy Buffet experience.
