Description
This fascinating book, now available as a new edition, looks at the development of the shoe from the early 1700s. Virtually every conceivable style of footwear is examined and put into context. From the beautifully crafted shoes of brocaded silk and embroidered linen of the early eighteenth century to the wacky and futuristic designs of the late twentieth century, this book has them all including examples of 'exotic foreign' shoes from the Joseph Box shoe collection which were not seen in the first edition.
