A couple of other books are written by Clarence Poulin-"Tailoring Suits the Professional Way" and "How to Make Men's Clothes" by Jane Rhinehart.

Four goods books total. The other two as mentioned before- Roberto Cabrera's "Classic Tailoring Techniques" or Stanley Hostek's "Men's Custom Tailored Pants".
