Description

After the bust out success of The Big Book of Breasts, TASCHEN presents the perfect companion, The Big Penis Book.

When it comes to pleasure, size doesn't matter; as we all know, it's quality, not quantity, that counts. But let's admit it: a big penis is undeniably compelling. Big shoulders, big lapels, and big hair may come and go, but the big penis never goes out of fashion. With those possessing more than 8 inches (20 cm) making up less than 2% of the world's population, this rare accessory will always fascinate.

In The Big Penis Book, we explore the centuries-old fascination with the large phallus, a fascination common to men and women alike. This hefty book is profusely illustrated with over 400 historic photos of spectacular male endowments, including rare photos of the legendary John Holmes. The majority of the photographs are from the 1970s, when the sexual revolution first freed photographers to depict the male entirely nude.

Photographers include Bob Mizer of Athletic Model Guild, David Hurles of Old Reliable, Colt, Falcon, Sierra Domino, Third World, and Champion Studios, with each of these iconic photographers interviewed or profiled, along with information about each of their models.

And if this isn't enough, the book closes with a special surprise comparable to the Guinness Book of Records' Norma Stitz featured in The Big Book of Breasts! Can you guess what body part Dian is dissecting next?

Playgirl highlights TASCHEN's craftsmanship and surprising content, noting there are "more photographs guaranteed to drop jaws at your next cocktail party than you can shake a stick at."
