It seems that he’s hitting certain key historical periods and just giving insights on how the beard was understood at the time. So the text works as a good repository of sources. However, sometimes language of the current cultural moment creeps in, and the historian seeks to apply it to a time that these terms didn’t exist.

Good
Little read but the authors, one liners inserting, modern day norms into historical periods of the past can be distracting.
