Since the publication of THE COWBOY BOOT in 1992, the art of the boot has risen unbelievably. The art is what this book is all about. Some of what is new in boots has never been seen before. We are in the platinum age of boot making. Long live the cowboy boot and its makers.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's the best thing in print on cowboy boots., November 7, 1999
By 
This review is from: Art of The Boot (Hardcover)
The book is a masterly revision/expansion of its parent, The Cowboy Boot Book. Anyone who is remotely interested in cowboy boots would love this one. The boots and their photographs are remarkable. I would not have thought that Arndt could have done better, but he did. I had the privilege of seeing some of these boots and talking to some of the featured bootmakers this summer. After that and buying a copy of the book, I went out and bought a pair of boots. You might just be hooked!

5.0 out of 5 stars A feast for the eyes-a sigh for the feet, October 22, 1999
This review is from: Art of The Boot (Hardcover)
A colorful chronological history of the west "a pied". Tyler and Jim have managed to trump their very popular and successful "Cowboy Boot Book" published in 1992. Vivid in its photography, varied in the beauty of the boots included, the new compendium is a must for all boot lovers - a feast for the eyes - a sigh for the feet!

5.0 out of 5 stars Must-have book for boot aficionados!, March 3, 2000

This review is from: Art of The Boot (Hardcover)
Good information...glorious photographs...a galaxy of great boots! This book is more than just another pretty picture book. It has well-researched information on boot history, lore and boot-makers, written in an engaging, personal style. There's an up-to-date list of bootmakers and sellers of collector boots. Ya just gotta have it! (only one quibble..."el rey" means "the king", not "the sun."
