Cyrus Miley with Hilary Lifton
MILES TO GO
Parragon octavo hardcover 2009 266 pages illustrated. If you don't know who Miley Cyrus is you have not been around teens. Unlike some people said to be famous for being famous Miley is famous for being at the very centre of the TV show Hannah Montana. Has many B&W illustrations in the text and two sections of colour plates. Missing is Annie Leibovitz's fabulous photo of Miley which not unexpectedly in a neo-puritanical society stirred up controversy. Might have made a nice cover but the one of Miley on the front is itself quite nice. Very good copy with very good dust-jacket. ISBN 9781407562612. hardcover
