3.0

While not something I would normally seek out, I felt compelled to pick up a copy of Jo Weldon’s [b:Fierce: The History of Leopard Print|36301040|Fierce The History of Leopard Print|Jo Weldon|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1516519988l/36301040._SX50_.jpg|57969400] after seeing it referenced in video essayist ContraPoints' video on Opulence. While I did not realize this print could constitute the basis for an entire book, Weldon’s passion for leopard print and the power it conveys really shines through. I would argue that this book is probably more of a fun coffee table read than a comprehensive text, but it is a really well-executed coffee table book that I would definitely recommend if this topic is something you are interested in.
