PRAISE FOR JAWS - MEMORIES FROM MARTHA'S VINEYARD"The stories are wonderfully minute and personal, yet add up to as large and complete an evocation as any true “Jaws” fan could ever hope to have. A thoroughly enjoyable read." Vince Gilligan Creator, BREAKING BAD "The book I have been waiting for since 1975." Greg Nicotero Producer, THE WALKING DEAD "An absolutely masterful job... this book brought back so many incredible memories of the JAWS experience on the Vineyard... an incredible history of the making of this film." Jaws producer Richard Zanuck "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 "One of the most amazing making-of-a-movie books ever." Michael Gingold Fangoria Magazine "Chock full of anecdotes and bursting with more than 1000 pix shot by residents that have never been seen before. This behind-the-scenes beauty is an absolute must have." Library Journal "It is charming and as handsome and thorough as any book about a film production could hope to be." Chicago Tribune
