It chronicles the evolution and development of the industry from 1760-1875 and includes supplementary chapters on such subjects as Medieval shoemaking tools, modern shoe repair, contemporary manufacturing processes, and more. This volume is highly recommended for those with an interest in the history of the shoe industry, and it is not to be missed by collectors of allied literature.
