Title: A Substantial study of shoes
Product review: This book reviews the history of shoes from ancient times to the present, concentrating most heavily on "western" styles. The text is quite substantial and informative from a writer and a publisher with good reputations. It is lavishly illustrated in both color and black & white with photographs of shoes and reproductions of historic illustrations. As compared with catalogs and chiefly pictorial collections, it has fewer shoes and more context illustrating social attitudes and people wearing shoes and much more information. There are sections on some of the most famous contemporary designers.The is a detailed table of contents and a substantial index, but no bibliography.
