From details about spirits, to a comprehensive summary of the life of James Bond, this collection is sure to appeal to men of all tastes. (THE BOOKSELLER - Men's Lifestyle, top title)
Under the headline VIRILE AND PROUD OF IT, the reviewer says her "own in-house uber masculine metrosexual.... amid alarming belly laughter... is literally convulsing with admiration.... (Thomas Fink) is displeased by this marginalisation of masculinity. He wants gentlemen everywhere to stand up and take note. Ladies should be aware that it makes for an illuminating afternoon when they do." (NEW STATESMAN,)
"Bloke facts, rules and tips.... stacks of handy, ZOO-Style info: how to start a fire with a Coke can, make cocktails, build a treehouse." Three stars (ZOO MAGAZINE)
"A big celebration of the human male form, spelling out all the stereotypes that make us so unique. A must, if urinal etiquette confuses you." Three stars (NUTS MAGAZINE)
Every now and then a book comes along that makes you ask yourself: why didn't I think of that....it deserves to sell in truckloads, and it probably will. (LITERARY REVIEW)
Reseña del editor
The authoritative guide to being a man in the 21st century is here, at last.
* Ever wondered which is the right way to walk with an umbrella?
* Ever questioned just exactly what differentiates the types of beer or where all the single malt whiskies come from?
* Ever wanted to work out without actually having to go to the gym, and fancied doing it James Bond style?
* Ever considered how a batiste shirt differs from a broadcloth one?
If you have, you're in luck. The answers to every question you have ever needed to ask are within these pages, from how to strut your stuff on the dance floor to how to cook a decent chilli. Designed to help you out of any awkward situation, this book gives you any number of tips and hints for witty repartee down the pub, including why it's better to have an older mistress and the 85 ways to tie a tie. All this and so much more is explained in a systematic and intelligent way, with facts and figures, diagrams and tables.
This indispensable guide for all men's rituals and practical habits belongs in every man's back pocket.
