Detailed illustrated approach to basic and advanced tailoring techniques, including a dictionary of stitches and equipment, step-by-step guides to preparation, layout, cutting and garment assembly.
I found the above review amuzing due to the fact that they bought a book published more than 20 years ago and wanted modern fashion tips. With that aside, this is a great book, full of information that will never change with sewing a garment. IT's also great if your on a budget. You'll get everything from this book and probably more than any of the "modern" books out there. I'm an instructor at an NYC sewing school and I highly recommend this book.
