From Roosevelt to Churchill, Napoleon to the Duke of Windsor, the Panama hat has been donned by some of the world s most distinguished people. In the process, the myth of the Panama was created. Taking us beyond the myth, this volume offers for the first time an examination of the hat s remarkable history, production process, and variety of shapes, evoking all the while the grace of living of its country of origin: Ecuador. Panama seeks to pay a fitting tribute to the aristocrat of straw hats.
