About this product
Product Information
Object Lessons is a series of short, beautifully designed books about the hidden lives of ordinary things. We think we know the trench coat, but where does it come from and where is it likely to take us? From its origins in the trenches of WW1, this military outer-wear came to project the inner-being of detectives, writers, reporters, rebels, artists, and intellectuals. The coat's insurgent energy propelled imaginative leaps into the unknown. Trench Coat tells the story of seductive entanglements with technology, time, law, politics, trust, and trespass. So what is the distinctive appeal of the trench coat? In this book, readers follow the rise of this sartorial archetype through media, design, literature, cinema, and fashion. Steeped in history, but already exceeding its origins, the trench coat today anchors cinematic fabulations of future life-worlds. In violent imaginaries of futuristic bodies, buttoned and belted, the trench coat shape-shifts once more; this time from cherished icon to unsettling omen, a sign of disturbances to come. Object Lessons is published in partnership with an essay series in The Atlantic.

Reviews
" Trench Coat maps the extraordinary lives of this seemingly simple garment, which emerged from early industrialized warfare to become the screen for a multitude of projected dreams, fears and desires across the 20th century to the present. Jane Tynan's material and cultural history charts the evolution of a coat that is practical yet cryptic, hyper-visible but concealing, possessed of vitality whilst also a form of camouflage." -- Rachel Woodward, Professor of Human Geography, Newcastle University, UK, " Trench Coat maps the extraordinary lives of this seemingly simple garment, which emerged from early industrialized warfare to become the screen for a multitude of projected dreams, fears and desires across the 20th century to the present. Jane Tynan's material and cultural history charts the evolution of a coat that is practical yet cryptic, hyper-visible but concealing, possessed of vitality whilst also a form of camouflage." -- Rachel Woodward, Professor of Human Geography, Newcastle University, UK "Jane Tynan's Trench Coat is a delight - richly informative and written in prose as stylish as the object it describes. Uncovering the 'dark and dangerous energy' behind this icon of modernity, Tynan vividly captures the trench coat's perennial appeal." -- Catherine Spooner, Professor of Literature and Culture, Lancaster University, UK, and author of Fashioning Gothic Bodies

As far as shipping and everything in the sellers end, everything was to be expected. The book itself is completely worthless. It’s a complete waste of money. It tells you what to do, but doesn’t explain how to do it. There’s no DIY projects. No explanation that is even remotely helpful. It says things like, collect water, get food, build a fire, you need shelter, but never tells you any helpful ways to do these things. Burning the book to stay warm is the only useful thing about the book.
