The Campaign Hat & Forgotten History

In another video in the series about his hat collection, the History Guy recalls the history of the broad-brimmed felt or straw hat, with a high crown, pinched symmetrically at the four corners.

This video about the campaign hat was originally made for THG's patrons on Patreon. If you would like to support the creation of episodes of forgotten history, please consider becoming a patron:   / thehistoryguy
