Customer Reviews

Good Info; Covers Many Topics

This book covers a number of topics helpful to men and young boys who are learning good manners. Very informative for young men learning the appropriate way to behave and do things in many settings, and not just at the dinner table. The language sounds a bit "fluffy," but the information is concise and detailed.

another essential tome

Once again John Bridges and Bryan Curtis present essential information in both a very useful and charming manner. Very thorough. A must have addition to every gentlemen's collection.
