Photographic historian Dennis Pellerin and "Queen" founding band member Brian May re-team again for this fourth Stereoscopic 3-D history book. This time the subject is Crinoline, the hoop-skirt fashion fad that took the world by storm in the 19th century, when stereoscopic photography was at the height of its popularity. Utilizing not only photos but also vintage illustrations and various other mediums of artwork, Pellerin tells the fascinating history of the fashion, which was beloved by women of the era and an irritant to their husbands.
