  • Dichotomous Keys-Practice with Shoes

    Hello, I felt the need to practice with my shoes prior to moving onto the plants.   According to the History of Shoes-World Famous Inventors and Inventions, Lyman Reed Blake, an American inventor, invented a sewing machine to sew the modern soles of shoes.   For purposes of my practice here, we shall give him credit for developing the American modern shoe sole.   Let’s see if I have a decent understanding?   Thanks for any input.
