Forty-six remarkable drawings reproduce the everyday dress of numerous American colonists of the 1770's: broom seller, farmer and his wife, waggoner, cooper, gentleman, barber, doctor, fisherman, carpenter, rural militiaman, wigmaker, and many others. Completely authentic, each illustration is accompanied by a caption and a brief description of the clothing. 15 examples are pictured in full color on the covers.
