The only book I can think of that's similar is Practical Tailoring by J E liberty (1933). I have a PDF which I downloaded from somewhere for free, but I can't find a direct link that doesn't require registration (anyone?).

Kein problem!  :)

The book is a little difficult to understand at times, but worth persevering with because there's some excellent information in it.
