(by Lynne Zacek Bassett) A hands-on guide, with over 30 swatches of modern textiles that replicate 1800-1850 cloth. What I love about this series is that the swatches are attached so that you are able to feel the hand of each piece and see the reverse. Sections on men's and women's fashions and a discussion of how the Industrial Revolution changed textile manufacturing. Paper, Spiral bound, 8 1/2 x 11 ISBN 0965819760
