This a fine, comprehensive book helping you see both how the costumes are constructed and how the costumes evolved from those of the previous period. But it does have one flaw that might keep this book from being useful to a costuming beginner--the patterns must be copied, enlarged, and adjusted to the individual for whom the costume is being made. For the experienced sewer, these could be more of an advantage than a problem.
Great book. Informative and explanatory in its writing. Would be nice if it were larger (like 8X10 vs. 5X7) but otherwise awesome!
