Summary: "A Short Treatise on Head Wear, Ancient and Modern" by Anne C. Goater is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This book explores the evolution of headwear throughout human civilization, examining various forms of hats and their symbolic significance across different cultures and eras. It reveals how hats serve not just as protection from the elements but also as indicators of social status, profession, and cultural affiliation. In this treatise, Goater provides a comprehensive overview of headwear, tracing its origins from ancient civilizations, such as the Egyptians and Greeks, to its modern incarnations. The book is richly illustrated, depicting various styles and shapes of hats, including the crowns of monarchs, military headgear, and cultural specific items like the turban and sombrero. It delves into the materials and techniques used in making hats, the social customs surrounding them, and their evolving fashions in society. Goater emphasizes how headwear reflects societal standards, individual character, and even influences historical events, all while shedding light on the craftsmanship and artistry involved in hat making.
