It's Coffee-Table-Book Season Again

Three books celebrating unique facets of American style hit the shelves this month, just in time for the holidays. Jeweler Robert Lee Morris' The Power of Jewelry looks at his 30 years of work creating high-fashion jewelry and body ornaments for the likes of Donna Karan and Calvin Klein. In American Style, Kelly Killoren Bensimon assembles a visual essay of great style moments in popular culture — from the high-stepping Rockettes, right, to 21st century rappers. And finally, Jamee Gregory opens the door on some of New York City's most exquisite apartments, including that of avant-garde director Robert Wilson, in New York Apartments: Private Views.
