Summary: If you only get one kimono book, get this one.
Review: I'm something of an expert on kimono, at least kimono of the everyday variety (as opposed to, say, the Nomura Collection variety). People always ask me what books I recommend. I own most of the kimono books that have been published in English (and a couple that aren't in English), but for an overview of all kimono, this is the book! If you can only get one book, get this one! It will tell you most of what you want to know about kimono, and probably answer questions you haven't even thought of. And it's profusely illustrated, another plus!
