We have a review of it in our upcoming volume of MC&T. Our reviewer liked it. It apparently has a social/economic focus but uses everything from sumptuary laws to visual arts as sources. Yet another great resource for people studying Italian clothing ... after Moda i Firenze, Dressing Renaissance Florence, and so many others. I picked the wrong part of Europe to focus on, apparently. --Robin _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
