How the West Was Worn: Bustles And Buckskins On The Wild Frontier, First Edition
ISBN: 9780762735648 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

In this book, author Chris Enss examines the fashion that shaped the frontier through short essays; brief clips from letters, magazines, and other...
