Extremely detailed and verbose instruction for dressmaking. How this man found time to author this heavy title is beyond the imagination. This is teaching that doesn't exist any more, unless one takes an advanced course in fashion industry at an elite university. I can only hope this brilliant man passed down his knowledge to the family or some student. The types of pattern making and cutting are systems still in use to this day.

The author gives instruction to the reader as if the reader is right there under his wing, listening to him as he gives his lesson. Ukrainian Jewish tailors knew their stuff and were the kings of clothing design and manufacturing I think since the beginning of time. Well worth the download.
