Great little book full of tips. Everything from how to tie a tux bow-tie to how to set the table correctly. Also full of tips on "common courtesies," which are less common than they should be these days. We would have more descent people in the world today if more people knew and followed the advise in this book. Also see the sequal, "As a Gentleman Would Say."
