1.0 out of 5 stars Based on VERY OLD research, May 1, 2005
Ideas on Byzantine clothing have altered dramatically since this text was written. If you are looking to create an authentic type of garment for yourself, stay away from this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars very useful, scholarly written and comprehensible, November 10, 2006
By I. Yeginsu (Istanbul) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The book is very nice. It is a scholarly source to be taken seriously, and at the same time its language and format are comprehensible for an average reader who is not very familiar with the subject.
