Format:Paperback
The book lacks illustrations and the few there are, are in black and white. You have to know the subject well to understand all the description of the costumes and you have to be a good seamstress to go through the patterns as no consruction method is explained.

I hoped to find details of the descriptions. For my taste it is not clear enough. For a beginner in the "medieval world", who never made medieval clothing before - it is useful. That is why I give only three stars. But for me it was too briefly.

Do not buy this book if you intend to create the costumes or want to learn the history of clothing.
The book offers little insight into the costumes or how to make them, and the patterns are awful.
