Books, Manuscripts
Drawing on evidence from social history, women's history, and the histories of photography and fashion, to name but a few, this book looks at a number of issues that have long perplexed and amused family historians. Richly illustrated with photographs and drawings from the 19th and early 20th centuries, and using examples from the famous as well the lowly, it investigates the whys and wherefores of several aspects of personal appearance and dress, and the ins and outs of a whole series of family relationships.
