Needs the Illustrations

(3,5 Sterne)

Most of the book covers English costume from the Middle Ages to the mid 19th century. If you've seen other books on historical costume, it will help you visualize as you listen. I tried several times to access the facsimile book, but it was 'not found'. The narration is good, however.
