Sylrog,
I too studied with Prof. Russell, just a very few years before he passed
away. I love his book and use it as an additional reference in my costume
history class. I use the book chosen by my department as our primary book,
but the Russell text does so much more to make the connections

Dear
That's exactly what I loved about studying costume history with
Professor Russell. He really brought it to life by making those
connections and putting it into perspective. I've never had another
teacher who did that. I want to try to do that with the class I'm

I'm going to open it then, so there. I want it right now!

It is a shame that Russell is out of print, but it has its flaws, too.
IMHO, there is no one really good history of costume text out there.
