Ann,
The newer addition is a lot better. In my class I just refer to certain
pages in the book. My class starts in 1840 and ends at 1970. Those sections
are good in the book for an overview. I just remembered that I bought the
book used on Amazon not eBay. My book was used and was in perfect
condition. When I was a student, I used my book for three costume history
classes. So I got my money out of it.
