Customer Reviews

Speaker's Resource

As a trainer and coach, I feel this book is a good guide for any occasion - however, it is to be used in a light-hearted vein. It actually brightened my day. It can prepare you when someone is about to pass a witty remark - and you can give an equally witty rejoinder!However, I feel that its greatest strength is to give speakers a good starting point to develop their own brand of witty humour.Go on - buy the book.

very snappy

I've read a few other toasting books because I am so in love with the art of toasting. This one not only has guidelines for coming up with your own, but also has some very nice historical and traditional toasts. The chapters on being witty are very fun to read as well.
