Plant's Review of Books Cover Index
Eric Rewitzer's covers for Plant's
were the first things that most people saw of the magazine, and therefore
it's appropriate that they are the first items to appear here. We're still
in the process of putting our original issues--Plant's Classic, if
you will--online, so not everything's linked up yet, but please bear with
