I had hoped for more information about how indigenous peoples were using silk throughout history. I mostly got information about the different ways Europeans showed up to places already ady using silk, and took it back to various parts of Europe. Which is still interesting and relevant history I suppose, but not what I was looking for. There is some very good information on the silk moths themselves that I wish could be spliced out of this book and into its own shorter, more interesting book.
I intend to finish it at some point, but I'm not in any rush.
