Excerpt from Historic Dress 1607 to 1800 "Fashion wears out more apparel than the man," and happily for us some relics of by-gone days have been preserved intact and placed in our hands for the preparation of this book - veritable documents of history on the subject of Dress in America, which should teach you "the nice fashion of your country," and help you "to construe things after their fashion." For these interesting old garments and also for the valuable portraits and family papers most generously entrusted to us for our work I take this opportunity to express, in behalf of Miss Steel and myself, our appreciation and sincere thanks.

This study of clothing during British colonial America examines items worn by the well-to-do as well as the working poor, the enslaved, and Native Americans, reconstructing their wardrobes across social, economic, racial, and geographic boundaries. Clothing through American History: The British Colonial Era presents, in six chapters, a description of all aspects of dress in British colonial America, including the social and historical background of British America, and covering men's, women's, and children's garments. The book shows how dress reflected and evolved with life in British colonial America as primitive settlements gave way to the growth of towns, cities, and manufacturing of the pre-Industrial Revolution. Readers will discover that just as in the present day, what people wore in colonial times represented an immediate, visual form of communication that often conveyed information about the real or intended social, economic, legal, ethnic, and religious status of the wearer. The authors have gleaned invaluable information from a wide breadth of primary source materials for all of the colonies: court documents and colonial legislation; diaries, personal journals, and business ledgers; wills and probate inventories; newspaper advertisements; paintings, prints, and drawings; and surviving authentic clothing worn in the colonies.
