Excerpt from Two Centuries of Costume in America, Vol. 1: MDCXX MDCCCXX<br><br>It was a fitting dress for their conditions of life. The colonists lived close to nature - they touched the beginnings of things; and we are close to nature when all dress in russet. The homely butternuts of the Kentucky mountains express this; so too does khaki, a good, simple native dye and stufl; so eagerly welcomed, so closely Cherished, as all good and primitive things should be.<br><br>About the Publisher<br><br>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
