Preserving one's manner when surrounded by the mindless masses isn't easy, but "The Gentleman's Book", certain to be enjoyed by any man who aspires to be a gentleman, is a vital read. It's not an etiquette guide (they're ten a penny, and awfully dull); instead, it promises the reader an antidote to the ill-breeding and vulgarity that permeate our society; from food and drink, work, career and money, language, the gentleman abroad, personal grooming, one's family, modern technology, music, hobbies, sporting pursuits, and lifestyle choices. And given that a gentleman never makes a promise he can't keep, that's quite a claim.
