| Summary | "A Manual of Shoemaking and Leather and Rubber Products" by William H. Dooley is an instructional manual written in the early 20th century. This comprehensive guide serves as a resource for students and professionals entering the leather and footwear industries, detailing the craftsmanship and materials involved in shoemaking. Dooley addresses the technical aspects of shoe manufacturing, from fundamental shoe terms to the treatment of hides and the processes of tanning. At the start of the manual, Dooley emphasizes the necessity of understanding basic terminology used in shoemaking and provides an overview of the structure of shoes, such as the sole, upper, vamp, and various components that contribute to shoe construction. He also outlines the types of hides used in shoemaking and the fundamental processes for converting raw animal hides into leather. This foundational knowledge is crucial for anyone pursuing a career in shoemaking, as it sets the stage for the more intricate details and techniques that will be explored in the subsequent chapters.
