Male Nude Now from Rizzoli Publications Price: $26.37 Customer Review:  Mr. Leddick has outdone himself on this one. With over 100 artists represented, this is one of the most inclusive collections of male nudes I have seen. There are photographers, painters and sculptors represented. The only requirement seems to be that the artist be living. Several of those... |

Naked Men, Too from Universe Publishing (NY) Price: $26.40 Customer Review: I really enjoyed David Leddick 's second book of "Naked Men." If you enjoyed his first Naked Men book, you will surely love this one. This new book covers the male nude from 1950 to 2000. This is a breathtaking volume of men from models and actors, to bodybuilders, dancers, and many others. The... |

Naked Men: Pioneering Male Nudes 1935-1955 from Universe Publishing (NY) Price: $23.10 Customer Review: When David Leddick first published NAKED MEN: PIONEERING MALE NUDES 1935 - 1955 in the year 1997, many readers voiced the opinion that other photographers' books admiring the beauty of the masculine physique were far superior, more provocative, more erotic, and so forth. What is becoming more... |

Scavullo Nudes from Harry N Abrams Price: $19.95 Customer Review:  Before discussing this book, let me mention that most parents will feel this book is not appropriate for children. Although the nudes are modestly and tastefully done, these images would be "R" rated in the movie theater. Francesco Scavullo is best known for his portraits and fashion photography.... |

The Handsomest Man in the World from Southern Tier Editions Price: $12.57 Customer Review: "I cried twice." Leddick brings forth the past into the present in a homage to gay life that has come and gone - was it ever so simple? "Handsomest Man" is a quick read - something great for the pool or beach - gay or straight you will bond with the characters and be swept away into a love story... |

Male Nude (TASCHEN Icons Series) from Taschen Price: $9.99 Customer Review: In 1998 David Leddick?s ?The Male Nude? was published by Taschen. Now in this edition called ?Male Nudes? Taschen has published a much smaller version of the original book with the very best and most impressive images in a wonderful and very affordable paperback. I was... |

Men in the Sun from Universe Customer Review:  This little gimmick of book, a small paperback, is totally unorganized, with phony section titles imposed on random photos, so that we have "Men in the Sun," "Men Cooling Off," "Men in the Water," etc. The actual photos in those different sections prove underwhelming vis-a-vis these grandiose... |

The Secret Lives of Married Men : Interviews With Gay Men Who Played It Straight from Alyson Publications Price: $11.17 Customer Review: David Leddick's volume of interviews with gay men who once were or are currently married to women promises a good deal more than it delivers. Organized by the age of interviewed subjects, starting with the oldest, the mostly short interviews are sometimes touching, sometimes titillating. After a... |

The Sex Squad from St. Martin's Press Customer Review: David Leddick's follow-up to "My Worst Date" represents a complete departure for him, a book that reads more like a series of non-fiction anecdotes than a conventional novel and mingles fictional characters with larger-than-life figures from the worlds of opera and ballet such as Maria Callas,... |

George Platt Lynes from Taschen Customer Review: George Platt Lynes has to be one of the most influential of Twentieth Century American photographers. This beautifully printed book by David Leddick illustrates that. In his narrative, Mr. Leddick says that both Bruce Webber and Herb Ritts were influenced by Lynes. I would add Arnold Newman-- his... |

Intimate Companions: A Triography of George Platt Lynes, Paul Cadmus, Lincoln Kirstein, and Their Circle from Stonewall Inn Editions Price: $10.47 Customer Review: David Leddick has accomplished in this book what couldn't have been achieved by any impeccably-trained art critic or scholarly biographer: he has told the story of three vastly different but intertwined lives from the standpoint of a cultural historian who knew his subjects very well. I for one... |

My Worst Date from St. Martin's Griffin Price: $10.36 Customer Review: In this book, our hero, a young and handsome boy named Hugo, seems to sort of flow from one situation to another. His mother is a former model, now a realestate agent who has given him handsomeness which he uses to begin dancing in a strip club, getting a part on a local TV show and to attract the... |

Never Eat in from Serpent's Tail Price: $24.00 Customer Review:  Perhaps it's because I enjoyed "The Sex Squad" so thoroughly that "Never Eat In" was such a disappointment. Leddick does not write believably from a female point of view (at least in this novel), and while the book moved forward (plodded forward) there were no actual high points or suprises. In... |
