Praise for the 1st edition:


"Chock full of anecdotes and bursting with more than 1000 pix that have never been seen beforeThis behind-the-scenes beauty is an absolute must have."- Library Journal


"One of the most amazing making-of-a-movie books ever."
-Fangoria magazine


"You're going to need a bigger coffee table." - Rue Morgue magazine


"A gorgeously produced coffee table book. Taylor's work ambitiously offers what amounts to a nearly scene-by-scene accounting of the making of one of history's most-beloved films."
-Kirkus Reviews, Starred Review, one of the Books of the Year


"It is charming and as handsome and thorough as any book about any film production could hope to be."
-Chicago Tribune


"After thirty-five years, I can't believe the fan base Jaws has. A coffee table book showing the making of the movie in a whole new light is long overdue."
-Jaws Production Designer Joe Alves
