Book as good as his hats Mar 30, 2008 Ritch Rand made a hat for me in 1994 and I'm still wearing it today. His book is like his hats- authentic, of the excellent quality and dedicated to the history of the Old West. If you believe that a hat says something about the person who wears it, if you are of the opinion that a hat is more friend and traveling companion than garment, then this book is for you. Read the book then get yourself a hat!!

The care and feeding of the cowboy hat. Nov 20, 1996 This coffee-table type book contains a detailed history of
the cowboy hat, specific information about how to choose a
hat, measure properly for fit, clean it, store it, travel
with it, and much more. Even discusses "hat hair!" Numerous
historical photos show the development of the cowboy hat
across the west and around the world. Exceptional photos of
famous hats (who doesn't recognize Festus' Gunsmoke hat or
Hoss Cartwright's 10-gallon monster on sight?) and great
hat-wearers such as James Garner, the Duke, Henry Fonda and
Clint Eastwood. A must for Western lovers, cowboy buffs,
and everyday folks who own their own Stetson and want to
know how to keep it nice!
