DisappointedBy Nancy MollersI was disappointed because it was just a book of old photos with descriptions of the people and clothing they were wearing. It wasnt very informative about the history of Marshall Fields and how fashion developed in Chicago during the time period of the book. Thus I wasnt able to learn very much from it.
