Book Synopsis American Menswear from the Civil War to the Twenty-First Century, Second Edition by : Daniel Delis Hill
Download or read book American Menswear from the Civil War to the Twenty-First Century, Second Edition written by Daniel Delis Hill and published by Daniel Delis Hill. This book was released on 2024-01-20 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a glance at American menswear over the past 150 years, change has been sometimes glacial in its evolution, sometimes regressive and nostalgic, and other times abrupt and revolutionary. In this study of American menswear from the Civil War to the twenty-first century, that evolution is chronicled and documented with more than 700 illustrations. In addition to the main categories of suits, sportswear, and outerwear, each era also includes a detailed examination of sleepwear, underwear, swimwear, hats, neckwear, footwear, and accessories. Further, Daniel Delis Hill examines not only American men’s dress and the structures of the menswear industry, but also the historical and socioeconomic drivers that affected men’s style—particularly the shifting conventions and iconoclasms of American ideas and ideals of masculinity.

Download or read book Reading Lips written by Claudia Sternbach and published by Unbridled Books. This book was released on 2011-04-01 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kisses, even the ones that don’t happen, can be the trace of what’s constant when life changes. In childhood, when what seems to define everything is competition—for style, for knowing, for experience—a kiss is the first first. When a girl’s father moves out and chooses a new family, a kiss on the head from him may be the trace of constancy that she wants most. Later, such things take on a different flavor. Sometimes the kiss she wants doesn’t come. Sometimes the one she wouldn’t have is forced upon her. From time to time, the one she has kissed before is lost to her. Some kisses are final. When things are most hectic a kiss can be a celebration. And when circumstances grow threatening—to a woman, her family, her sister—a kiss becomes the reassertion of the most vital connections. The rich story in these essays rings with good humor and with moving wistfulness. Throughout, Sternbach maintains a perfect balance between them as her story moves from the bittersweet desires of childhood on through loss and love. Reading Lips is the tale of one woman who is just trying to get life right.

Book excerpt: When Michael Sumner was reported killed in action in Vietnam, his grieving parents decided to leave Chicago and try to start over in Florida. But then they learned that Michael was alive after all; he had escaped from the Vietcong and was coming home. But it was a different Michael Sumner who came to his parents' new home in Florida. His parents knew that something must be terribly wrong when he was kept in a hospital for a year before being allowed to return to the States. But nothing could have prepared them for the son who eventually arrived. Touching, shocking, and infinitely moving, On the Way Home is the story of the three Sumners: of Michael, who has been changed and hurt with terrifying thoroughness by the war; of his father, Dale, torn by love, confusion, and anger; and of his mother, Anne, in desperate pain for her son. Above all, it is the powerful, beautifully written story of a family learning to live together in the face of what they all know about each other—a stunning debut by an eloquent young writer.
