Barnes & Noble A Guide to Making and Repairing Leather Shoes - A Collection of Historical Articles on the Methods and Equipment of the Cobbler at Hamilton Place in Chattanooga, TN
This early collection on shoe making and repair includes articles that would be both expensive and hard to find. It contains details of the best kinds of leather to use and information on the tools and techniques of the cobbler. This is a fascinating work and highly recommended for anyone interested in learning the art of shoe making. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
