Finishing a very good book by Virginia Postrel, which received a deservedly glowing review in the Wall Street Journal and a somewhat nit-picky notice in the New York Times.

Love the glossary of textile terms but wish the budget had stretched to more images and to color plates upon occasion.

The Fabric of Civilization: How Textiles Made the World. Virgina Postrel. ISBN 9781541617605.
