    Last year at the Chicago games / festival, an "updated" 3rd Revised copy of "So You're Going To Wear The Kilt" was purchased.

    Copyright 1989, the current-marketed "how-to" book is 24 years old!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    NO mention of solid colour, cotton canvas, cargo, leather, university, branch of service, national kilts. Or Irish or Welsh.

    NO mention of kilting without minimally a wool sweater, let alone shirtsleeves, polos, tees. Only one illustration in the whole book without a necktie.

    In this opinion, the book is sorely in need of an update, or someone else should do a new "bible." Better still, several someones, from several points of origin and view.

    Not EVERYTHING should be seen and read on the internet.

    This observer's metaphorical tuppence worth.
