Reviews
""Fans who know their songs by heart will welcome "Carpenters: The Musical Legacy."...Pictured throughout the book are treasures from Mr. Carpenter's collection....The most touching photographs are those of his sister, candid shots that show her deep in concentration or smiling radiantly." - The Wall Street Journal , ", ""It has the heft and visual history of a coffee table book, but it's also a nearly note-for-note musical biography of the pair that goes back to their childhood lives in New Haven, Connecticut, where Richard Carpenter found the seeds of the group's sound in his father's records and a toy jukebox." - Associated Press , ", "Readers get a glimpse into the life of fashion icon Diana Vreeland in this picture book biography....The mixed media artwork is the star of the book.

  • Great for the pictures and data on records made

    I adore the Carpenters. I have almost every book written about them so I thought I needed this one to add to my collection. Sadly it is not what I anticipated. It has a lot of information about the records made, the record sales, etc. and some wonderful pictures but it was not what I was expecting.

  • Legacy in the titlel is always an attention grabber.

    It is interesting to read of the history of when each album came out. Filled with a lot of information concerning The Carpenters and their music.
