Delve into this fascinating and exquisitely presented celebration of the Panama hat by luxury publisher Assouline. A symbol of classic gentlemanly elegance since the 19th century, the Panama has topped the heads of such greats as Roosevelt, Churchill, Napoleon, and the Duke of Windsor. In this reissue of a classic title, author Martine Buchet examines the hat’s remarkable history, production process, and variety of shapes, while celebrating its country of origin: Ecuador. A fitting tribute to the ‘aristocrat of the straw hats’ and a perfect gift for hat aficionados and book lovers alike.
