Men's Pattern Drafting: An Introduction to the Direct Measurement System (The Stanley Hostek Tailoring Book Series)

A treasure trove of information as are all the books in this series.

Very good text on the subject. The pants drafts (along with Kawashima's and Aldrich's) are the only ones worth following to achieve a workable result right off the paper. It would be nice if he also had a few alternatives to his basic jacket draft, i.e., a 3-panel and others, but what he has is entirely workable. Sleeve draft is pretty standard, particularly if one is used to the historical approach. The only other tailoring books I use with any regularity are Kawashima's and Mongrandi's (only available from B.Black & Sons), and some out-of-print 19th Century texts.

Didn't find anything useful in this book. I threw it away.
