Excerpt from How to Repair Shoes Finding that there was nothing in the form of writing and illustrations which I might use to keep constantly before my pupils while teaching them how to repair and make shoes, I set to work compiling a set of lessons which would meet this immediate need. The lessons on the following pages are planned so as to take one from the very first steps of caring for a shop and making waxed ends to the place where he is ready to make a shoe. Upon each step illustrated herein, a great deal more might be said. My main object, however, is to put, in a clear, compact way, the essential facts. This book is dedicated to the thousands of young men who are anxious to do common things in uncommon ways.
