The Shameful History of Underwear

The history of underwear might seem trivial and well-known, or you may find it embarrassing. However, I am confident you will read this book in one sitting! What is remarkable is that man, since becoming homo sapiens, has been wandering around more frequently… without panties. The history of underwear is as long as the history of human civilization. From antiquity, through the Middle Ages, to modern times, our clothes have evolved along with changing demands and worldviews over the centuries. Follow the course of fascinating little stories, extremely stretched in time, full of colourful characters and unexpected plot twists, far more enjoyable than History, which consists of key events described in school textbooks.
