Jackets, Coats and Suits from Threads

Summary: Jackets, Coats and Suits
Review: While this book had some tid-bits about how to copy famous designer's work, it is mainly a advertisement for the designers and other merchants.

I purchased this book to improve my tailoring skills. The small amount of information contained within the book was not worth the purchase price. But, most important it was not worth my time.

Summary: Very little about coats, but excellent jacket information
Review: If you're looking to make a jacket or a blazer, this is one book you don't want to miss. It's got more information about fitting, pressing, sizing, facing, and construction than any I've seen before.

Unfortunately, it doesn't have much information on winter coat construction. If you're looking for advice on how to sew duffle or other thick woollens, you won't find it here.
