Summary: A nice book to leaf through...
Review: ....but not quite worth full price.

There's not much to this book. The quotes and historical tidbits are interesting, to be sure, and the pictures are rather lovely. The laundry tips are nice, and the author does give a few more uses for scarves than I would have thought of, but there's nothing in here that you can't find elsewhere, for much less.

My advice is to get it at the library, take down what information you need at home -there's not much- and spend the money you saved on a scarf.

Summary: Disappointing! Merely a miniature decorative book
Review: This book merely provided a pictorial overview of different kinds of scarves. Some of the photos were lovely, and the book is attractive, although since it is only slightly larger than a deck of cards it doesn't offer much in the way of a coffee table book. The book also does not explain to the reader how to style the scarves in the fashions illustrated, and also is not particularly comprehensive. Useful if you need laundry instructions for your scarf collection.
