My question concerns the description of the hood. I'm wondering what
the top "flap" is for, other than pure decoration. I think the quote
calls it a "fauchon", whatever that is. The only thing I could figure
out is that it covers up what has to be a center seam that goes over
the top of the head.

I was referring to an actual book I have called "Mr. Godey's Ladies".
I realize it was a magazine. Since I posted the message, however, I
think I figured it out. I was going to ask another question concerning
it though if anyone does happen to have the book.

Hi,
The book is not a single book but a bound volume of a years worth of
the
magazine, so there are lots of Godey's books. They come up on eBay all
the
time but attract $100+ USD so are quite prized.
if you are after plate images from the books, there are a number of
sites
that host collections of the images.
Just google for them and you will get 100's
