The first publication to tell the full story of Swaine Adeney Brigg, the makers of luxury leather goods and umbrellas, this book presents a wealth of items made by the various firms and brands that came together to form the company we know today. Brigg umbrellas and walking sticks, Swaine & Adeney whips, Köhler hunting horns, Pendragon travel goods, and Herbert Johnson hats are all represented and placed in their social historical setting.
