11" x 8"
Profusely illustrated with black-and-white line drawings plus a quadruple page fold-out between pages 80 and 81. "Not long ago, Eric Sloane was exploring an ancient house and came upon a small, leather-bound, wood-backed volume bearing the flyleaf inscription: "NOAH BLAKE, my book, March the twenty fifth, Year of Our Lord 1805, Given to me by my Father Isaak Blake and my Mother Rachel upon the fifteenth year of my life." Eric Sloane became fascinated by the diary, in which Noah Blake kept an account of daily activities on his father's farm. In March, Noah helped to fell an oak tree for a "good wood floor" to take the place of the hard earth which had to be pounded and swept smooth every day. For a week in April, Noah worked at maple-sugaring; the rest of the month was devoted to nail-making (which was his father's trade), building a new bridge across Red Man Brook, and spring plowing. On Rogation Sunday, in mid-May, Noah and his family followed the custom of walking the boundaries of their property, both to give thanks and to take inventory. While Noah Blake made note of his chores and of his "social activities," he did not, of course, describe in detail the house he lived in, the methods and implements he used to accomplish his work, or the reasons why certain customs were observed in his world. Eric Sloane therefore decided to fill in these details from his own knowledge of early American ways and tools, and to illustrate, with his superb pen-and-ink drawings, what the farm looked like, how things were done, and what they were done with. The result is an intriguing combination of elements - quotations from Noah Blake's diary, Eric Sloane's descriptions of nail-making, bridge-building, shingle-splitting, and other everyday occupations of a century and a half ago, nearly a hundred illustrations -which bring the year 1805, and Noah Blake, to life again for us."

Marc Joseph's Shoe 👞
Size: 8, Color: Tan Napa
Marc Joseph's Shoe 👞: I ordered a size 8 for my husband. He wears socks with his shoes. It’s a little tight slipping on. Other than that, the shoe is very comfortable. My husband grabs them all the time because they are so comfortable.

Quality Shoe, but slight design issue
Size: 10, Color: Tan Napa, Size: 10, Color: Tan Napa
I like the way these fit and feel. I normally wear a size 10, and these are a 10. Very comfortable to walk in. I think they're stylish enough to wear with jeans or chinos. The leather is nice quality. However, the issue I am noticing, only a few days into wearing these (I've worn 3 times) is that the bottom material doesn't come forward far enough. The tip of the shoe juts out and as you walk the tip rolls forward on to the ground surface and is wearing away at the leather. I mean, I've only wore these 3 times and I am getting major concerns about their durability. I would choose another shoe if I could go back, as these are an indoor shoe only as they're currently designed.

Nice looking
Size: 11, Color: Cognac Grainy
I normally wear an 11.5 (including other Marc Jacob’s- including this make from 2024). The shoes are a pretty soft leather. I had to return for a size 11 which feels slightly tight but now, through experience, I know will stretch. I wear these shoes almost every day in black or brown They look great. Note, these shoes (because all leather) wear out relatively quickly, especially the front. I keep a fake leather Pair (almost identical looking) which are not nearly as comfortable (I don’t take walks in them) but look better for dinners etc.
