David Bowie The Seventies gives a good impression of what is seen as the most important period of Bowie's career. Hanekroot's and Bowie's paths crossed on six different occasions. The book includes both portraits, studio photos and concert photos in black and white, as well as unique colour photographs. Sebastiaan Vos, a publicist and archivist who has been a fan since the very beginning, provides a brief biography of Bowie, as well as a thoroughly documented description of the photos.
