The book, "The Roman Toga" by Lillian May Wilson referenced above, has been reprinted through Kessinger publishers, who specialize in reprints of old and out of print books. http://www.kessinger.net

This copy is $20 on Amazon in paperback, $30 in hardback.

And yes, I long lost the CD that had this on it. I have better luck with books.

I created a spreadsheet (easy to do) of the formula such that you put in your girth (waist) and unit (neck to floor) and out pops the correct sizing for the pattern.
