Umbrellas And Their History is a book written by Clyde and Black and first published in 1864. It is a comprehensive and detailed account of the history and evolution of umbrellas, tracing their origins from ancient times to the modern era.The book begins with a discussion of the earliest known umbrellas, which were used in ancient civilizations such as Egypt, Greece, and Rome. It then goes on to explore the development of the umbrella in medieval Europe, where it was primarily used as a symbol of authority and power.The authors also delve into the technological advancements that led to the creation of the modern umbrella, including the introduction of steel frames and waterproof fabrics. They also discuss the cultural significance of the umbrella, which has been used as a fashion accessory, a symbol of social status, and a tool for political protest.Throughout the book, the authors provide a wealth of historical and cultural context, as well as detailed illustrations and photographs of umbrellas through the ages.
