Murder on the Cosplay Express: A Kent Bronwyn Mystery
Highlighted Features
At the encouragement of his publisher, famous mystery writer Kent Bronwyn is a guest speaker at a comic book convention in San Diego, California. It has been a long tiring day and he is looking forward to sleeping on the train back to Los Angeles. Things don't go as planned as he has missed the train he had a reserved ticket for and he now waits for the last train among hundreds of costumed convention-goers called Cosplayers. It's like being in the midst of a four-color comic book come to life. Bronwyn enjoys watching them all interact, but he's more interested in getting off his feet once the train arrives. Once aboard, he hardly has time to rest when one of his fellow passengers ends up murdered. With the encouragement of young fans of his mystery novels he reluctantly must solve the crime... which is no easy task as all the suspects are in costume, and no one is who they claim to be.The first in the Kent Bronwyn mystery series, this story pays homage to the great comic book conventions of Southern California, the Cosplayers in attendance, and the crowded train they ride to go home.

So Youre Going to Wear the Kilt
Highlighted Features
Interesting, detailed, and informative! Author J Charles Thompson's discussion of how the kilt and accessories are to be worn. A terrific guide and reference manual for the beginner or experienced wearer of kilts. Keep in mind though, that Thompson admits to being very ridge in his opinions and recommendations (see quote below). Most American readers are going to take a more relaxed attitude about the rules, restrictions, and protocols. (Kilt freedom!) Excerpt from Preface: "Do not take any of my opinions as authoritative, but feel free to disagree with any or all of them!...I am not a purist in matters of Scottish dress, but I have been careful to include the opinion of those who tend to that extreme."

Tudor Costume and Fashion (Dover Fashion and Costumes)
Highlighted Features
The period of Tudor rule in England (1485-1603) marked the appearance of an unprecedented opulence in fashions worn by royalty and members of the nobility, with social rank often reflected in attire. This monumental study by a brilliant and imaginative scholar examines that colorful period in fashion history, from the reign of Henry VII through that of Elizabeth I.Because continental fashions heavily influenced clothing styles of the English nobility, the text includes brief introductory reviews of garments worn in France, Italy, Spain, and Germany. Each chapter focuses on costumes of a particular period, meticulously delineating not only the elegance of court dress but also describing the quotidian garments of the middle and lower classes — from tradespeople and common sailors to the peasantry and even court jesters. In addition to investigating an extraordinarily wide range of fashionable garb, the author meticulously describes elaborate headgear, hairstyles, jewelry, collars, footwear, and other wardrobe accessories.Composed of two books bound as one, this carefully researched and profusely illustrated volume includes 1,000 black-and-white figures (including diagrams showing the construction of various garments and head coverings), 24 halftones, and 22 full-color plates, nearly all taken from contemporary sources, which enliven this authoritative and exhaustive study of period clothing, an indispensable resource for fashion designers and historians and a dazzling pageant of living history for the general reader.
