This book explores the history, use, and styles of walking sticks from the 17th century to the present day. Profusely illustrated with black and white and color photographs, the book includes a dictionary of specific terms and analyzes the evolution of the walking stick throughout the centuries, from its exclusive use by a few in the 17th and 18th centuries, to its popularization in the 19th century and its decline in the 20th century. A fascinating journey through the history of this everyday object and its cultural significance.
