Gentlemen,

Huntsman published and sells a book titled "Savile Row and America: A Sartorial Special Relationship" -- a complimentary to a recent exhibition of the same name. The most intriguing is that the exhibition was curated by Nick Foulkes -- one of the best pens writing on men's elegance today.

Is any of you had a chance to read the book? Is it actually written by Mr Foulkes? How many actual text are there?

No, never saw the book.
Looks very interesting.
Around when was it published?

Uppercase, not sure I got your question right... But either way, I don't know when the book became available -- I just stumbled upon the announcement on Huntsman's web-site.

Andrey, I cannot help you with any details on the book either. Perhaps it is rather a catalogue?

In case you have not read it already, the exhibition was mentioned on the homepage of the SR bespoke association. It has a most interesting link to a picture gallery with approx. 70 outfits shown during the exhibition, e.g. Buffalo Bill's frock coat.
