Title: A reminder that none of us knows everything
Review: In 1931 this book was cutting edge knowledge of medieval clothing for stage costumers. There is much good in it. However there is much that is just plain wrong. This can be useful in its own way. Those of us interested in clothing history and recreating medieval clothing would do well to look at some things that were "known" in 1931 that we now "know" to be wrong. It should remind us to be humble about the things we know we "Know now" because we may be as far off as much of this book is. It is lots of fun though!
