Because the price is right, this is a worthy book to add to your library.

This guide introduces the world of fabrics covering a broad range of subjects from English embroidery and lace to Oriental silks and India shawls. A price range is given for every item, and the emphasis throughout is on what is both available and affordable. The text is divided into major collecting areas, such as samplers, velvets, laces and silks, and provides an insight into the history of the fabric and guidance on what to look out for when collecting.
