Ho, ho, Ho, A Merry X'mas to all the ladies and gentlemen of LL!

After reading the entire book for two months while seated in the most private room in my house, it is my pleasure to recomend a wonderful book To Marry An English Lord - Or, How Anglomania Really Got Started by Gail MacColl and Carol McD. Wallace. The reason is the book contains a surprising amount of sartorial jewels relating to gentlemen's clothing. The book devoted quite a lot of attention on Edward VII when he was PoW. Now I know why trousers have pleats! The historical development and cultural significance of the New England summer resort of Newport is covered. Indeed, this book is a must for sartorialists.
