Jaccard, Roland - Louise Brooks: Portrait Of An Anti-Star

One of those early books that helped fan the fame. When the original French edition was published in 1982, there were no home videos, and the superlative Barry Paris biography was a few years away.
This contains several of Brooksie’s articles, as well as dozens of photos from her own archives.
For newcomers, especially in 1986 (US edition), this and Lulu In Hollywood were essential for all Silent film buffs.
Glossy, perhaps superseded by later books (Paris and Cowie), this remains a must have for Louise fans.
