There is a windy self-congratulatory text, a double-page spread reproducing the author's signature and some superfluous vista photographs a la Falcon Crest. Inevitably, there are many of the California cliches...
More often, Lauren manages to find a lucrative combination of what he likes and what will sell, a spectrum that has ranged from Polo shirts to his Santa Fe collection.
