Dressing (History Mysteries S.) - Tapa dura

Reseña del editor

This is part of a series of books each of which explores a different theme, using photographs of "mystery" objects from the 1900s, 1930s and 1960s. The reader is encouraged to look at the object in the photograph and guess what it might be, and then turn the page to find a detailed colour illustration of a scene in which the object is being used, with a simple text giving more information. The series makes links between history and technology and is designed to support a programme of study for the National Curriculum History syllabus. It also has a "timeline" showing the development of objects, and detailed teacher's notes with suggestions for follow-up work. This title explores the subject of dressing, from galoshes to boots, from bodices to body stockings, looking at how dressing has changed over the last 100 years.
