Book Reviews of 18th Century Costume in the National Museums and Galleries of Mersyside (National Museums Galleries)

Book Review: Good Basic Overview
Summary: 4 Stars

As a reenactor, ordering this book was a leap of faith as it hasn't been mentioned much in 18th century enthusiast circles. As one who likes to have photos of as many extant garments as possible, it was great to add some never before seen items to my library. For the beginner, the text is a good overview of 18c fashion - but it would be with Linda Baumgarten in the Bibliography. There are some novel methods of trimmming in the photos which are within the range of the reenactor.
I was pleased with the book and recommend it.
