Published in 2000 by Nieman Marcus titled "The Book: A Look at the Up Side". As written by the Chairman and CEO H.W. Mullins, "What better place to celebrate the good times than at Nieman Marcus? Since 1907, we've been in the business of providing our customers with the world's most opulent offerings. The tradition continues within the November 2000 issue of the book [this issue]. From black diamonds and crystal vases to embroidered furs and gold-plated espresso machines, you'll find beautiful examples of the best we have to offer." That is the imagery and content of this book.
