Some of you may know Geir from social media or other forums (He posts on IORR as RobberBride).
He has now published a pretty impressive new book called 'The Curious Chronicles of Villa Nellcote' detailing the history of the house from when it was built in the late 19th century to the present day.
The Curious Chronicles of Villa Nellcote is an exclusive 400-page book about the legendary Riviera-mansion Villa Nellcote. The Rolling Stones rented it. The wealthy and eccentric owned it. And the Nazis occupied it. But are all the rumours really true?
Produced in collaboration with the families having owned Nellcote, the book includes first-hand accounts, and exclusive, new contributions from the Rolling Stones´ entourage adding further insight about the bohemian recording of Exile on Main St. at Villa Nellcote in 1971.
Lavishly illustrated with architect drawings, personal journals and more than 250 photos from private archives, The Curious Chronicles of Villa Nellcote is unparalleled in scope and the most authoritative document on the history of Nellcote.
I was delighted and quite surprised to get a copy in the post this morning and it looks a really beautiful piece of work.
