It may be little but it's a great read! Karla R. Heath This book is only tiny, however it covers the subject well. You can really tell the author delights in handbags and that's one of the things that makes it so fun! There are some wonderful vintage illustrations and quotes about purses that add to the joy of flicking through and feasting your eyes.Another point which I really enjoyed was the authors obvious respect for animals, she talks about the fur and skin trade in relation to accessories and strongly highlights the connection between all creatures great and small and fashion. She makes some strong statements- that crocidile skins and heads on bags are a thing . A. Gilchrist said Must Have for Handbag Lovers. I really enjoyed this book. Good details. Nice color photos. Quick browse. Why didn't I get this sooner? especially since I'm such a bag fanatic.. history included!!!!! Jacquelyn Vanier what a FUN & CUTE book; I have her 'bra' book & 'shoe' book also! she makes history with these adorable, informative, well written & photo fun, displayable books; can hardly wait for the next one; what item of clothing will it be?
