Amidst beautiful photos of shoes still with us and period art from their time, the author tells stories of the Georgian shoe, ranging from how the shoes were made, marketed, transported, and worn. From London to the colonies, biography mingled with history provides a window into early American colonial life and its connections to English fashion. Printed on heavy paper, box stitched, the book is a pleasure to hold, just like a favorite shoe.  Johns Hopkins University Press. 2018. Hb, Dj. NEW. $39.00
